Priyanka Chopra might have hit the bull’s eye with Zanjeer remake, but
it seems her counterparts in the film are not taking it as a good news,
Reportedly, Priyanka has been paid a whopping 9 crore to play the female
lead in the remake. And, this news has peeved people close to the
leading man Ram Charan Teja.
Teja’s people want to make it clear
that he is a bigger name than Priyanka and sources have it that the
actor has been signed for 12 crores for his Bollywood debut.
Talking to a daily, a source said, “It is ridiculous to even suggest that PC will get a price higher than that of Charan's. Charan is getting 10 crore in Andhra Pradesh and has been signed on for 12 cr now for his Bollywood debut. Whoever is responsible for these stories should do some serious re-thinking.”
Interestingly, during the yesteryears, when the original film was being made, then leading lady of the film, Jaya (Bhaduri) reportedly received Rs 55,000 to play the role. Incidentally, Jaya accepted the role only for her 'friend' Amitabh, since no other actress was ready to star opposite then struggling actor Amitabh.
Well, it seems Priyanka wants a handsome fee to work opposite an actor, who is making his Bollywood debut or perhaps the actress is keen to get her top position back. Well, only time will tell.
