Acclaimed director of Paan Singh Tomar.
Posting the questions that are about me favorites. Will post link for the rest of the interview 😆
LOVE what he said about Saif 😳

Tigmanshu Dhulia: If I made Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster today, I would cast Kareena Kapoor

DEBOSHREE GHOSH2.39 PM IST 02.06.2013

What is it about Mahi Gill that made you give her the lead role?

Honestly, I didn't have many options. I just wanted to make films with friends without giving them any money. She was the only one I had!

If not Mahi, whom would you cast?

If today I had to make Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster with someone else, then I would love to have Kareena Kapoor.

Your next film Bullet Raja is a gangster thriller - why Saif?

Saif is one of the stars who is also an actor. Most of the stars are less able. They are stars in their own right, very charismatic and people love them, but Saif knows how to act. We have been wanting to work with each other, and since he wanted to do a rustic film for a long time now, it wasn't difficult to convince him.

So is he indirectly saying that Kareena wont work with him if he would pay less or that she is only friends with people who can further her career?

He's talking about Mahi when he said that about his friends.
Kareena is an expensive actress. She charges about 4-5 crores per film. A debutante wouldnt really have the ability to approach her right off the bat without the backing of a strong production house.

Heard she got 8 crores for the Dharma-Ekta collaboration.

He's pretty straight forward, aint he? He could have avoided that response though.

Tigmanshu's been after Kareena for a while now. He really wanted her for Begum Samru, but she turned it down due to explicit content. After which he went to Vidya, who also turned it down stating the same.
Wonder how explicit the content might have been considering Vidya was ok with TDP, but not this.

No idea.
Males are given much more than their female counterparts though.
Up until not too long ago, even newbies like Imran Khan were paid more than Kareena, one of the highest paid actresses.
