Rimi Sen admits she did Bigg Boss 9 only for money; Reveals the whopping sum she was paid for 49 days

Actress Rimi Sen made her debut in Bollywood with Priyadarshan’s Hungama. The actress went on to star in several hit flicks like Baghban, Dhoom, Garam Masala, and Phir Hera Pheri to name a few. In 2016, Rimi surprised everyone by participating in the reality game show Bigg Boss 9.

Now six years post her stint in Bigg Boss season 9, Rimi has admitted that she did the show just for money. Yes, the actress confessed that money was the sole reason why she signed up for it. After all, she was paid a whopping sum just for spending around 50 days inside the BB house. Read on to know how much she was paid.

In a recent interview with SpotboyE, Rimi Sen said that people do things either for money or fame and did Bigg Boss for money. Admitting that money was the sole reason why she signed up for the show, Rimi told the portal, “We do few things for fame and some for money. So I did Bigg Boss only for money. They paid me around 2.25 crore for 49 days and nobody can earn this much money in such a short time.”

Further explaining the actual concept of Bigg Boss, the actress added, “Most of the time people fail to understand the actual concept of Bigg Boss. The show is not about fighting and getting highlighted or giving content. This show is about getting your hidden personality out. And I found the concept very interesting when it got offered to me. They purposely create tasks in a way that your worst side comes out in public and that is something you have to have a hold on yourself.”
