Bigg Boss 14: Bollywood Singers Not Paid for Film Recordings, Says Rahul Vaidya

In April, Neha told us: “We do not get paid for singing in Bollywood at all. What happens is they feel that if we give a superhit song, the singer will earn through shows. I get a good amount from live concerts and everything, but Bollywood does not have this scene. To make us sing a song, they do not pay.”

Her contention had been backed by singer Aditya Narayan. Singers, Aditya told us, don’t get a “single penny” in Bollywood and that there is a “pandemic in the music industry”.

Now, Rahul makes the same revelation.

“It’s a very subjective decision but yes it is correct that singers are not paid for film recordings, and I don’t want to shy away from that fact. But yes, at the same time singers make tonnes of money from their live performances,” Rahul told IANS.
