It depends on where you are working as an actor.
For popular theatre groups, payscale is less. It is somewhere between Rs. 25000/- to 35000/- per show.
For TV serials, actors earn around 75000/- to 1.50 lakh rupees per episode depending on the popularity.
For film actors: the freshers get Rs 8 lakh to 15 lakh per film. This will go up as you get popular and successful.

Hi,
Most of the government film and acting schools accept minimum eligibility criteria as graduation. Eg: Pune Film Institute, National School of Drama-Delhi.
