Jaideep Ahlawat is all set for the second season of Amazon Prime Video's Paatal Lok 2. The show's second season was announced at the 5th-anniversary celebration of Amazon Prime India. The series, backed by Kkarnesh Sharma, had Jaideep in the lead, and Ishwak Singh playing a pivotal role. Now, as the audience is gearing up to see what next would happen in Inspector Haathiram Chaudhary’s life, we have learned that Jaideep has hiked his fees for the series.

An insider close to the development told a Bollywood website, "One success can change the tide for all the actors. Our industry respects talent and success. Jaideep is one of the key reasons for Pataal Lok to succeed. While the actor was paid a nominal amount of 40 lakh for the first season, his salary has gone up by 50 times for the second season.”

“He is paid a handsome sum of Rs 20 crore for season two of Paatal Lok. It’s a common norm to hike the actor fees with every passing season. But for Jaideep, it’s a success story of sorts, as none expected the tides to turn in this way, so soon."

Paatal Lok released in 2020 on Amazon Prime Video and took the country by storm. Fans are awaiting its second season now and with an official announcement, looks like they cannot contain their excitement.
