From Ram Leela, Bajirao Mastani to Padmaavat… Deepika Padukone and Sanjay Leela Bhansali always create magic onscreen.
Which is why, fans were over the moon when it was being rumoured that the duo might reunite for ‘Baiju Bawra’ movie.
But if the latest reports are to be believed, then this reunion is apparently not happening. While it appears that Ranveer Singh is locked for Baiju Bawra, his wife is not.
As per Bollywood Hungama, SLB has allegedly turned down DP because of her fee! A source told the portal – “Apparently, Deepika wants the same remuneration as her husband. Not a penny more, not a penny less.”
What do you think? Previously, Deepika was paid more than Ranveer Singh for Padmaavat – she reportedly got 13 crores while Ranveer and Shahid got around 10 crores.
Recently, Kareena Kapoor Khan had been in the news for demanding a 12 crore fee for playing Sita’s role. Though the reports turned out to be false – she had never been approached in the first place, the heated discussion around the pay gap in Bollywood had sparked up again. Taapsee Pannu had defended Kareena’s right to ask for huge compensation, given that she was such a big superstar!
