What? Is this the amount that Manish Paul has received to host ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9’?

TV host turned actor Manish Paul who has worked in movies like ‘Mickey Virus’ and ‘Tere Bin Laden 2’ is back as a host on the hit dance reality show ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9’, and has apparently hiked his fees for the same.

He has been paid a whopping amount of Rs 2.5 crore for ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa’s ninth season, a show which brought Manish fame on small screen, showing him at his wittiest best. The show would just seem incomplete without Manish and so the makers agreed to pay him the amount, as he is a very popular name among the audiences. This makes Manish Paul the highest paid actor on the small screen.

‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9’ is judged by filmmaker Karan Johar and choreographer Ganesh Hegde. Actress Jacqueline Fernandez has joined them as the third judge. Choreographer-director-actor Farah Khan is going to be the fourth judge on the show which already aired its first episode last Saturday.
