Talking about the pay cut, via pledgetimes.com, Singh said, “Whenever you sign a contract anywhere, the agreement is only after the bargain. Now it is not just a matter of lockdown, earlier we have been deducting on the fees of artist or remuneration. Seeing the demand of the time, we artists have also been doing our less and less.” As Archana Puran Singh opened up about pay cuts in the industry, the actress spoke about the negotiation of remuneration and recalled the time when the country was under the economic recession in 2011.

Speaking about the need for negotiating fees, she said, “If we do not reduce our fees (remuneration cut), then it may happen that they have to leave 4 others. If you will cut and all of us are ready for this deduction, then no one will go to work, no one will sit at home. I am also ready for all kinds of cuts.”
