The creative producers of Four Lions Films were in a financial crunch, which has been put to rest as soon as they got new investors on board, but actors still haven't got their due - so they claim
Vikrant Massey, who played Ayaan in Four Lions Film's Qubool Hai recently tweeted about not getting his remuneration from the production house even after a year."1 year...No payments!!! No courtesy!!! The 4 lions hunt a pack of innocent professionals & savor a healthy meal... #worstnightmareever."
So we caught up with Gorky M - co-founder of Four Lions Films to hear his version on the issue. He said, "The kind of financial mess that we were in, it will take some time to come out of it completely, but things are getting better with time."
When queried about Vikrant Massey's remuneration, Gorky said, "Frankly, I am not involved with the day to day finances, but that may or may not have been the case. This issue was brought to my notice as well. In fact, we've been talking to all the actors but Vikrant saying something like this on a public platform took me by surprise. Again,I don't know the details of the issue,but I am assuming something big must have happened. Having said that, I also remember that our company had bailed him out a couple of times, when he was in trouble. Once when he was stranded at some place abroad; I forgot where exactly, we had helped him out. So if someone wants to resort to a public platform to resolve issues then it reflects more on him than us."

Well we hope the issue gets sorted soon and everything gets well between them. Fingers crossed!

Oh ok ! They are accepting now that they were in a financial mess and are still sorting it out ! Strange they ran into financial trouble even after so many hit shows .I guess this explains the lack of promotion on their part with regards to QH 2 all their money and energy must be invested in their new shows to revive their company !

Shows are hit but generally profit sharing ratio is 1:3 between PH & Channel. recently Nisaar Parvez moved out.. Ksg was to finance but he ditched 4lions too... plus Ipkknd was produced with IMRC Entertainment & Panglosean Entertainment. Geet too but geet earned minimum profit with low rating as a Star one show which is popular among online youth viewers. with this amount she needs to shot QH day to day shoot with bigger casts.. plus channel v's shows..

TFS Yaari. Hmm the PH is frank enough to mention that they were in financial crisis. They are going through financial crisis even when most of their shows are a hit. 😆
I wonder why they are doing a Sony Tv show considering Sony tv shows are 100% flop shows. 😆

^ All the best!
#LOLitaPawar i did not say IPK did not earn enough profit. But fact is how much 4lions earned from that earnings. As they were co producer.. they get a share not the whole of the amount.. plus Financial partners gets more profit... & Nissar moving out from 4lions shows that he did not re-invest the profit he earned in 4lions which making 4lions suffer now. instead of wealth maximization, He moved out maximizing his profit.. Gul was not left with much profit to invest enough on QH or other projects. read they got new financial partner.. now i hope they make the best use of their profit.
#Tanu there's no gain without risk. So they are taking risk. my best wishes with them. i hope they are successful. yup i appreciate 4lions that they are making media statement rather keeping fans under delusion. few days back Gul too made a statement on the same about QH's off air news.

Exactly! It must be so frustrating for the cast and crew members to not to receive their complete salaries after all the hard work they put in.
