Blind: Filmmaker furious with top actress

Shot in the dark: This filmmaker is furious with a top actress for disclosing fee hike

Though there has been a lot of speculation about the project and casting, the producer-director is known to keep his cards close to his chest.

So, there is nothing official about it, but the actress has been going to town, claiming that she was being paid a whopper for the film. She didn't forget to add that it is way higher than what another leading actress, considered top of the heap, demands and gets.

As soon as her tall claims reached the filmmaker's ears, he was left fuming. He berated her and asked her to keep mum till he makes an official announcement about the project. As damage control, she is now saying that she has not signed the project yet.
