Has Salman ruined Varun’s 180-cr deal?
Here's the latest update from the world of Bollywood. We bet you wouldn't want to miss this. Read on for details... The Kick star’s manager had a role to play in this
Movie making is big business with stars cracking deals with leading channels for the satellite rights of their films. This time, we’re talking about Varun Dhawan.
SpotboyE has it that the actor was on the verge of signing a Rs 180-crore deal with Star Network for six films.
However, Salman Khan played spoilsport in the situation – his manager, to be precise.
You see, Salman and Varun are managed by the same talent company, which is helmed by Reshma Shetty.
Reshma agreed that Rs 180 crore for six films, which amounts to Rs 30 crore per film, is a great deal for the young actor.
But she had a big reservation – Sallu’s current deal with the same network works out to Rs 50 crore per film.
She questioned Star officials how they could pay Salman only Rs 20 crore more than Varun. After all, Sallu is a much bigger star than the Badlapur actor – Salman’s films register more eyeballs upon its airing on the channel, the most recent case being Bajrangi Bhaijaan. Not just that, they even bring in more advertisement revenue.
Reshma told the channel officials in no uncertain terms that she would work out Varun’s deal if and only if Salman’s price is hiked. Last heard, things were still to be finalised.
So the bottom line is, Varun would have been richer by Rs 180 crore by now, had it not been for Salman.
