The top five finalists have endured the show’s strict rules and high-pressure environment for weeks, entertaining viewers and building strong fan support.

GK is also said to have taken home the biggest paycheque of all, earning close to Rs. 17.5 lakh per week. After fourteen weeks, this amounts to an impressive Rs. 2.45 crore. According to The Times of India, the Anupamaa star’s net worth is estimated to be between Rs. 15 crore and Rs. 18 crore.

Amaal Mallik ranks as the second-highest-paid participant this season, right after GK. The singer–composer is believed to receive nearly Rs. 8.75 lakh each week, which adds up to about Rs. 1.225 crore across fourteen weeks in the house. His net worth is estimated to fall between Rs. 25 crore and Rs. 30 crore.

In third place, in terms of weekly remuneration, is Tanya Mittal — a Gwalior-based entrepreneur and spiritual influencer. Her pay is said to range from Rs. 3 lakh to Rs. 6 lakh weekly, bringing her total earnings to somewhere between Rs. 42 lakh and Rs. 84 lakh for the season. Tanya’s reported net worth stands at roughly Rs. 12 crore, placing her below both Gaurav and Amaal.

Taking the fourth and fifth spots are Farrhana Bhatt and Pranit More. Farrhana’s weekly fee is estimated at Rs. 2 lakh to Rs. 4 lakh, meaning she may have earned between Rs. 28 lakh and Rs. 56 lakh over fourteen weeks.

The Kashmir-born actress has the lowest net worth among all eighteen contestants, reported by Filmibeat to be between Rs. 1.5 crore and Rs. 3 crore. Pranit More, the stand-up comic, is said to have received the lowest weekly payment among the finalists — between Rs. 1 lakh and Rs. 2 lakh.
