The A Listers of Bollywood usually are not getting what they need. Their staggering price is now a factor of the previous. All main producers have made it verbally clear that no actor will command the price that he did earlier than Coronavirus.

Says a serious producer-director who doesn’t need to be quoted, “It’s a different world now. After the lockdown everyone in every walk of life has taken a financial fall. The stars never need to do that. They have made enough money to last them for several lifetimes. But the days of 50-60 crore fees are over. Either the A-listers get real or they get out.”

While a number of Bollywood superstars used to take dwelling exorbitant fees upfront, others like Akshay Kumar and Aamir Khan insisted on changing into a co-producer on all of the initiatives that they starred in and sharing within the income that their movies made.

Says a serious producer, “That model of payment will also change now. Producers just can’t afford to pay the male stars the fees they got before the pandemic. We are looking at a huge recession and an equivalent pay-cut for the A-listers.”

This producer provides that paring down the superstars’ price just isn’t a suggestion. It is the one possibility for the movie business to survive.
