Shahid Kapoor To Get Staggering Rs. 40 Crore Paycheck For Bloody Daddy
Shahid Kapoor will appear in the Ali Abbas Zafar directed film Bloody Daddy later this week, namely on June 9. While the film’s trailer and teasers, which will have a direct-to-OTT release, have made quite an impression and even drawn in the crowds, we’ve heard that making the movie was rather expensive. In fact, if the rumours are accurate, Shahid Kapoor demanded a staggering Rs. 40 crore to appear in the movie.
Jio Cinema has unwavering confidence in ‘Bloody Daddy’!
A source connected to the project commented on the matter and said “Given the current uncertain scenario it was surprising to hear the amount quoted as Shahid’s fee. But yes he did charge between Rs. 36-40 cr. for Bloody Daddy. Interestingly, in a time when the industry has been going through a tough time, and most actors have been slashing their fees, Shahid’s brand value has remained steady.”
