Actor Faisal Malik discusses the cast’s salaries and whether they increase with each new season of India’s popular web series, Panchayat.
Faisal Malik explains the payment process
Faisal assures fans of his earnings and payment structure, which divides salaries into five segments over a year, with the final instalment not received until the show is released.
Faisal responded, “They only increase your fees if you’ve had that written into your contract,” when asked if the pay rises in tandem with each season’s success. Nothing actually changes as a result of the show’s performance. That was a provision I had included to my contract. Sab acha hai.
About Panchayat
The Viral Fever produced the critically acclaimed Indian web series panchayat. The show centres on Abhishek Tripathi (Jitendra Kumar), an engineering graduate who grudgingly accepts a position as a village secretary since he has few other options. It is set in the made-up village of Phulera in Uttar Pradesh.
Jitendra Kumar, Saanvika, Neena Gupta, Raghubir Yadav, Chandan Roy, and Faisal Malik are all part of the ensemble cast. The four-season series, which can be streamed on Prime Video, is well-known for its endearing narratives, slice-of-life humour, and likeable characters.
