When Aamir Khan Broke Silence On Pay Disparity In Bollywood! ( Photo Credit – Instagram )
Gone are the days when only male actors played meaty roles. Deepika Padukone has marked her debut as Lady Singham in Singham Again. Alia Bhatt is also all set to play the first female spy of the Yrf universe. But remember when Aamir Khan explained why female stars get paid less and silenced Rani Mukerji as well as Kareena Kapoor Khan? Scroll below for the scoop!
Leading ladies of Bollywood, including Deepika Padukone, Alia Bhatt, Kangana Ranaut, Anushka Sharma, and Kareena Kapoor Khan, are said to be charging 15 crores+ for a movie. However, if we talk about the male, superstars like Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have moved to the profit-sharing model. Others like Shahid Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor are taking home 25 crores+ in remuneration for one project. The gap is still considerable between both genders.

Mumbai, Dec 10: Filmmaker Suneel Darshan's son Shiv Darshan, who will make his Bollywood debut with "Karle Pyaar Karle" in 2014, credits his choice of an acting career to Akshay Kumar.
"I never wanted to be an actor, but one day when my dad was shooting for 'Talaash: The Hunt Begins...' (2003) with Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor Akshay could not make it on the set as he was unwell, so my dad called me on the set for one shot on his place...That time I had a long hair and I had to cut it for that scene," Shiv told Ians.
"That is when I realised how much fun it is to be an actor...so in a way I am an actor only because of Akshay Kumar. I love being pampered on the set," he added.
Shiv says Akshay gave him a call after.
