Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah is one of the most iconic Indian television shows of all time. The show has made a positive impact on the lives of almost every actor associated with it. Apart from fame, actors have also earned substantial money by being a part of the show; One such name is Azhar Sheikh. So today, we will take a brief look at his journey with TMKOC and also know about his estimated salary!
Azhar is one of the actors who has been associated with TMKOC since the beginning. He plays the character of Pinku in the show and has always been an integral part of Tappu Sena. It’s been over 16 years, and the actor is still part of the cast, which is remarkable. Talking about his character, it was a bit mysterious as the makers did not reveal his parents for a long time and very little information about him was shared in the show. Finally, in 2018, his parents appeared before the audience.
Although Pinku is a part of the Tappu army, her character in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah is not that important. Hence, considering the character’s limited screen presence, the producers pay Azhar Sheikh a fair amount. Although the exact number is not known, it is rumored that the actor has been paid Rs 10,000 As his salary for shooting each episode.
If we compare it with Nitish Bhaluni’s salary then it is very less. For those who don’t know, Nitish Bhaluni replaced Raj Anadkat as Tapu in 2023. Since Tapu is one of the most important characters of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, Nitish reportedly gets a handsome amount. Rs 20,000 For shooting each episode.
So, we can see a difference of Rs 10,000 between both the salaries, and Azhar Sheikh gets 50% less amount than his co-star Nitish Bhaluni.
