says Rani Mukerjee

Published:March 11, 2018



From Sonam Kapoor to Priyanka Chopra, many of Bollywood's leading ladies have voiced their displeasure about the pay disparity that exists in the film industry.
While things are slowly changing - Deepika Padukone took home a larger cheque for Padmaavat than her male co-stars, Ranveer Singh and Shahid Kapoor - there is still a long way to go.

When Rani Mukerji was asked about actresses getting paid lesser than actors, she said that money did not matter much to her. "That's not what drove me to work. I worked to be happy. My parents took care of my finances," she told Mid-Day.

Rani seemed to be taking a jibe at some of those who have been vocal about unequal pay. "Nowadays, a lot of people who don't know how to act are also talking of pay parity. It's important to hone your skills and become good at what you do, money will follow," she said.

"Actors make money from endorsements or cutting ribbons. Money can come from anywhere," the actress added.

On the work front, Rani is gearing up for the release of Hichki, where she plays the role of a teacher suffering from Tourette Syndrome. Hichki will hit the theatres on March 23.

Lol
Anyways even Madhuri and Sridevi had to ,lower their price for some directors.
If you don't then the directors move to other ladies, I think that's how Sridevi lost some movies, even Madhuri.. Do you think actresses will come and say they were dropped or not getting offers cos of their price too high? They can brag they charge 20 cr. but they getting 20 cr?
Btw, the actresses asking price is 10 cr, but how much they are actually paid is different story

If delusional woman according to you is Kangana , she can bloody act
Same goes to vidya Balan , I think should be paid well
They both are better actors than some actors who charge 20 cr per movie
