Arijit Singh charges a WHOPPING Rs 2 crore for a live show; composer Monty Sharma recalls the singer's early days
Arijit Singh has become the voice of love and longing in modern Bollywood. From romantic ballads to emotional tracks, his songs always strike a chord with fans. But while his soulful music continues to win hearts, there's one question many people have quietly wondered, how much does Arijit Singh earn for one live performance? Now, music composer Monty Sharma has answered it. In a recent chat with Lallantop, he shared how much Arijit Singh really charges for a show, and it's a jaw-dropping number. Music industry money has changed completely Monty Sharma, who has worked in the industry for years, spoke about how music budgets and earnings have changed with time. He explained how affordable music production once was. "Everything has evolved over a period of time. Earlier, we used to make a complete song for Rs 2 lakh. This included an entire orchestra, which included 40 violins and a lot of other things. Eventually, when I created a brand name for myself after a couple of my works did well, I started to charge Rs 35,000 per song, irrespective of the other expenses included to make a song. ' Arijit Singh charges Rs 2 crore for a performance While speaking about changing trends, Monty revealed, Arijit Singh now charges Rs 2 crore for a single live performance. 'When Arijit used to come and sit with me, he used to sit for 6 hours straight. Now, he charges Rs 2 crore for a performance, for a show. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The boy meets a dog on the street - no one expected what happened next. Women's Method Learn More Undo So if someone wants to do a show, they do give Rs 2 crore.' YouTube and OTT changed everything Monty also explained why music earnings have grown so big in recent years. Thanks to the rise of digital platforms, singers and composers now have a wider reach than ever before. He explained, 'Earlier, people used to hear songs on the Radio or on television; now, people have it on YouTube. So now the exposure has increased. With the emergence of OTT and YouTube, the money is humongous.' But even with more money in the system, Monty pointed out that music companies still take most of the profits. He added, 'So if I am doing a song for 15-20 lakhs, 90% of the rights audio company takes it. They are the ones making mad money right now.' Who is Monty Sharma? Monty Sharma is no stranger to big Bollywood moments. He first grabbed attention with his music arrangements in 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam', especially the track 'Nimbuda'. That's where director Sanjay Leela Bhansali noticed his work. He went on to compose background music for 'Devdas' (2002) and 'Black' (2005), both of which got him critical praise. He later made his full debut as a music director with 'Saawariya' (2007), also a Bhansali film.

A few months after coming under fire for his popular YouTube show India's Got Latent, comedian Samay Raina will soon be back on the road in India with his tour, Samay Raina Is Alive And Unfiltered. Samay Raina was mired in controversy after the release of the latest episode of his show, India's Got Latent. Samay announces tour On Wednesday, Samay took to Instagram to announce his first tour in India after the India's Got Latent controversy. It will start on August 15 in Bengaluru. Sharing the news on his Instagram, Samay wrote, 'India tour live now on @bookmyshowin.' The tour will kick off in Bengaluru, where he will perform from August 15 to 17, followed by shows in Hyderabad on August 23 and 24. He will then head to Mumbai for a performance on August 30. In September, he will take the tour to Kolkata on the 6th and 7th, and then go to Chennai on September 19 and 20. He will also do three shows in Pune from September 26 to 28. The tour will conclude in Delhi with three back-to-back performances on October 3, 4, and 5. Samay later turned to Instagram Stories to share the excitement around his tour, posting about the seats selling out quickly and expressing heartfelt gratitude to his fans for the overwhelming response. He wrote, 'The love is unreal. We have sold 40,000 tickets in an hour for the tour. That's a record… Thank you so much for the love, we will bring the house down.' In another Story, he said it is all possible because of the blessings of his mother. Back in May, Samay took to Instagram to announce his comeback global tour.

At that time, he wrote in his Stories, 'The most testing time of my life makes for the best comedy. See you on the tour.' What do we know about the India's Got Latent row The controversy surrounding Samay Raina's show erupted following the filing of an FIR against multiple individuals, including Apoorva Mukhija, YouTubers Ashish Chanchlani, Ranveer Allahbadia, Samay himself, and others involved in the India's Got Latent show. The action was based on accusations that they promoted obscenity and engaged in sexually explicit conversations during the YouTube show, which was accessible to the public. The show faced intense criticism after Ranveer made a joke that many felt was insensitive, sparking widespread outrage. The video went viral, and social media users strongly condemned his remarks, leading to a fierce backlash online.
