If my films fail, I'll pay back

Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor has said if his film fail at the box office and he as a producer makes money, he would compensate the distributors for the losses.

When asked about Salman Khan's decision to refund distributors for the heavy losses they suffered on his Eid release Tubelight', Ranbir said "It has been going on since my grandfather's (Raj Kapoor) time in 1950s.. the style of making films where everyone makes money, not just the producers but also distributors and exhibitors

"It is a healthy exercise. If someone loses money on something and you have made money out of it, it's good to compensate. But that depends on person to person and film to film Ranbir added.

The actor also said his grandfather, Raj Kapoor, gave a bigger share to the distributors than the exhibitors (theatre owners).

"Like when Mera Naam Joker (1970 film) released, distributors incurred losses. So when Bobby released, my grandfather gave a bigger share to the distributors than the exhibitors. Personally, if my film fails and I am making money out of it, then I will pay back the distributors he said.

Ranbir turns producer with his upcoming film Jagga Jasoos' which releases in theatres this weekend.
