What's the story
Anita Hassanandani, who set temperatures soaring in Naagin 3, is all set to flaunt her moves on Nach Baliye 9. The actress will be participating in it along with her husband Rohit Reddy. And if recent reports are to be believed, she has charged a big amount for her appearance. In fact, Anita is, reportedly, the highest paid celebrity on the show.
Fees
Anita, Rohit to get Rs. 30 lakh per episode?
According to a report published in PeepingMoon, Anita and Rohit are charging a whopping amount of Rs. 30 lakh per episode. The report further states that the couple was approached for the last two seasons of Nach Baliye as well. However, things didn't work out back then. But given the hefty pay cheque, looks like Anita and Rohit couldn't refuse the offer this time.

Confirming her participation in Nach Baliye 9, Anita stated, "I love to dance and I always wanted to be a part of Nach Baliye but couldn't take it up earlier due to prior commitments." She further said that, "Now I have more time on hand with less commitments, I can focus entirely on Nach Baliye and do justice to all the performances."
