The COVID-19 pandemic has caused everyone to deal with hardships in some form of the other. The entertainment industry in particular was hit hard due to the spread of the virus. Shooting as well as film releases were put on hold indefinitely. Now that things have opened up, many projects have gone back on floors.
There were rumours that Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt have hiked their fees as they have been shooting extra days for their films Brahmastra and Gangubhai Kathiawadi respectively. However, a source close to the actors has squashed these rumours during an interview with a news portal. The source stated, “No producer can afford to pay them what they charge right now, so where is the question of extra fees? A lot of films are shot beyond the dates allotted. Ranbir’s Brahmastra is one of them. Does that mean he is going to ask his producer Karan Johar for extra money? Ranbir and Karan don’t ever discuss Ranbir’s fees. Alia has shot for many more days than she had allotted to Gangubai Kathiawadi. Is she going to ask Sanjay Leela Bhansali for extra money? At a time when the world and cinema industry are struggling through the worst crisis, who talks about being paid extra?” True that.
