Regardless of his age, Big B continues to rock the B-Town, don’t you agree? Right from fresh actors to popular ones, everyone has a desire of sharing the big screen with him.
On the other hand, everybody has that impression in their minds that Big B gets paid more than any other actor sharing the space with him. However, this is nothing but just a ‘Myth’ which Mr. Bachchan clarified today, of course with a proof.
Now, Big B and Deepika Padukone were seen together in ‘Piku’, the popular movie from 2015. Everyone thought that Amitabh got higher payment as compared to Deepika, but no, this was wrong.
Recently, he revealed that he was paid lesser as compared to Deepika. Big B says;
“I dunno if this is relevant or not. Whether coz of circumstances this has happened but I can tell you one thing, in Piku, Deepika Padukone was paid more than me and that says two things – one that she is obviously more important than me and two I have lost my price tag coz I have been working for so long. Maybe I am not so important,”
Well, Big B didn’t mind the difference in payment, but he just cleared out the notion. The movie was a super-duper hit and everyone loved it to the core.
Talking about this, Shoojit Sircar, the director of Piku says that it is absolutely fine to go this way.
He explains;
“If the woman’s character is that then it’s okay. For example, everybody asked me if it’s( Piku) is a woman centric film. I said why? Coz a woman has a stronger character that’s why it’s a woman centric film. But there are many films with only heroes but that is not man centric film. So don’t see a film like coz there’s a woman’s pic on the poster it’s a woman centric film. It’s a cinema, a film a story. She maybe is the hero of the film and that’s how you should see it.”
Amitabh takes everything positively and this is the reason he is a legend! He understands these valid points very nicely. So what is your opinion on this guys? Do let us know your thoughts on this in our comments section below.
