Amitabh Did Black for Free?

I remember when Black was being planned Mr. Bachchan volunteered to do the film for free, as Black was planned as a small arthouse film. It eventually went on to make loads of money. No one thought of offering him even a token amount in retrospect.

Such is the response to humility when it comes to financial matters in the entertainment industry. Shockingly, director Shoojit Sircar known for his unique approach to actors acting and storytelling also agreed that it was perfectly legitimate to pay the heroine in Piku more money if it was a heroine-oriented film.
