Saathiya
actress
Vandana
Vithlani,
who
was
seen
in
Hamari
Bahu
Silk
as
Janki
Joshi,
is
suffering
from
financial
crunch
due
to
pending
dues
and
no-work
phase.
The
actress
revealed
that
she
is
selling
customised
rakhis
online
to
make
money
as
her
savings
have
exhausted.
While
talking
to
TOI,
Vandana
revealed
that
she
shot
from
May
to
October
2019,
but
was
paid
only
for
a
month.
Her
dues
run
into
lakhs
of
rupees.
She
had
also
shot
for
another
show,
which
shut
down
in
two
months.
The
actress
said
that
she
auditioned
for
shows
in
January,
but
everything
has
come
to
a
standstill
due
to
the
pandemic
and
lockdown.
Vandana
was
quoted
by
TOI
as
saying,
"I
shot
from
May
to
October
2019,
but
have
been
paid
only
for
the
month
of
May.
My
dues
run
into
lakhs
of
rupees.
It's
been
more
than
a
year
without
any
payment
and
I
have
exhausted
all
my
savings.
I
had
bagged
a
role
in
'Musakaan'
in
November
2019,
but
it
shut
down
in
two
months.
I
was
paid
for
that
show,
but
how
long
would
it
last?
I
have
now
started
making
rakhis
and
selling
them
online
to
keep
myself
engaged
and
also
make
some
money.
Obviously,
I
am
not
earning
much,
but
anything
is
good
at
this
point."
The
actress
further
added
that
even
her
husband
is
out
of
work
and
their
finances
have
taken
a
hit.
The
actress
said,
"My
husband,
Vipul,
is
a
theatre
artiste,
and
he,
too,
is
out
of
work
owing
to
the
pandemic.
I
had
auditioned
for
shows
in
January,
but
everything
came
to
a
standstill.
Our
finances
have
taken
a
hit.
We
also
have
to
manage
our
children's
school
and
college
fees.
I
am
just
waiting
for
some
project
to
come
my
way."
It
has
to
be
recalled
that
the
cast
and
crew
of
Hamari
Bahu
Silk
have
been
fighting
for
their
outstanding
dues.
Zaan
Khan,
the
lead
actor
of
the
show,
had
revealed
to
the
leading
daily
that
they
have
been
requesting
the
makers
to
clear
their
dues
since
past
five-six
months,
but
in
vain.
He
also
revealed
that
they
have
stopped
taking
our
calls.
