How much money is deducted
Shiv Thakre won Bigg Boss Marathi 2 and participated in Bigg Boss 16. On the podcast, Shiv stated that more than half of the award money was deducted.

It was undoubtedly unexpected, but Shiv was even more surprised to learn that he only received Rs. 11.5 lakh in total. On the podcast, Shiv said that he later examined the account and discovered that only Rs. 11.5 lakh had been credited, with the remainder debited for his parents' plane tickets, clothing, and other expenses.
