Ranbir Kapoor has lost his brand ambassador status of a leading car company to his contemporary Sushant Singh Rajput.
The Bombay Velvet actor was roped in to become the brand’s face in 2010.
However, two days ago, an ad featuring a sub-brand of the same car company was released and it featured Sushant, who is currently prepping up for the MS Dhoni biopic.
Turns out, Ranbirs high fee was the reason behind his replacement.
“He wanted a higher fee this time when the contract came up for renewal. So, after several discussions, Ranbir bowed out of the deal,” says an industry source in the know of the deal.
