I don't think they are getting it from Nadiad's share. They are getting it from UTV the distributor's share. Just like Shahid and VB got from distributor's profit + other rights for Haider.

If they were getting their share from Nadiad's share they still had a chance to earn money.

Like here.. Kashyap made this movie at 75 cr. (approx.) sold it to Fox Star at 95 cr. So, Kashyap has made a 20 crore's profit. Now according to agreement Ranbir would get 32 cr + 30 something percent of profit (= The money Kashyap made from Fox).

Problem here is they only paid 20 cr. to Ranbir.. yet to pay 12 cr. Profit ko toh bhul hi jao. Kashyap and friends are saying the 20 cr. profit they made from Fox is already spent on the movie cause the movie went over-budget. So, they can refuse to pay the profit share to Ranbit, but they still have to pay 12 cr. of his 32 cr. Which they aren't. And I guess, that's the reason Rishi is angry.

Anyway, IMO, Papa and Beta Kapoor should be happy with 20 cr. as BW is going to the dogs.

If BV flops then KJo will kick Ranbir out of ADHD if he demands more than 5cr. 😆

I have said this before, Ranbir charges way too much at more than 30 crore...Anurag was famous for being able to produce films on a small budget...I guess, he invested a lot in the sets and all the edits that the film had to go through...For now, I think Ranbir should just focus on getting people to come and watch BV...he's already loaded with all that money he got from doing ads...and maybe he can go for vacations less than 3 times this year 😆 He should remember what made him sign this film and what made him want to work with Anurag..

Well he did act in the movie and did his job.
So its not really wrong to ask for his remuneration now.
That how it works right..do the job and get paid.

Money might not be the most imp thing but nobody works for free



not if the project you are working on is banking heavily on you...it's not like he's going homeless if he doesn't get paid...btw, I hope the crew got paid their salaries though...

wow, nice way of pr throwing the high budget film under the bus
now if the film flops, it's because it wasn't promoted well
not because of the movie, acting
why didn't he ask for his money 3 months ago or something
but looking at the trailers, he realizes he looks ridiculous in the trailers so let's throw everyone under the bus, it anurag's fault,it's fox's fault, it's anushka's fault , so many inside negative articles making ranbir look like the poor baby stuck with evil stepmothers.

same with besharam, everything was abhinav kashyap's fault nothing to do with ranbir.

and in both movies, ranbir is what sticks out as a complete sore thumb.

Give a hit before demanding 32 crores he is asking price that Khans demand. A guy who had 2 back to back flops. 😆

Ranbir is a good actor and popular but that still doesn't justify him asking for 32 crores. Tell him to get off his high horse and those idiotic producers should slap themselves now for even agreeing to pay him that much.

Such dumbos. Only the Khans can justify asking money like that because their films will make 100/200 crores. With the other actors of this generation if the film works it will be a hit if not it won't, no RK name-tag is going to make it a hit, it is the story and acting. Only Khans can make a nonsense film a success.

Have they all lost their brains.
