Director-Producer Karan Johar of Bollywood industry says star’s can’t guarantee hit and they ask for huge amount as their pay check. To which Saif Ali Khan recently reacted to the remark saying he wants to cut down pay check.
Saif on KJ’s statement said, “He wants to cut pay cheques. I think I should have my own union on that. I am sure he is right, but it makes me a little nervous when we hear about cutting pay cheques. No cutting pay cheques. Well look, the economics of our industry (is like that). That’s what happens – you go to a star, sometimes they say ‘hey, if you want me, that’s what it is going to cost’. And people pay it. And if people pay it, then sometimes the economics do get skewed. But, Indians are businessmen. So the film industry is primarily a business kind of financial centre in itself and people take shots. But, Karan Johar knows best. I’m just joking.”
“What he (Karan Johar) is talking about is people charging astronomical money and then not delivering, which can’t last. We don’t charge that much, we are recession-proof.”
