Shahid Kapoor To Charge Rs 12 Crores For ‘Mausam’ ?  Shahid Kapoor |
Shahid Kapoor refuses to talk money as rumours claim that actor’s price for his dad’s film ‘ Mausam ’would be a staggering Rs.12 crore. Mausam is directorial debut of Shahid’s father Pankaj Kapur.
Pankaj had written the subject of the film in 2007 and at that point had contemplated Kareena Kapoor as the leading lady in this romantic flick.
Shahid, who was working on his January release ‘ Chance Pe Dance’ was surprised at these speculations. He said, “Dad has always wanted to make a film with me. Mausam is something he is working on currently. He didn’t have an inkling of it in 2007; and even if the germ of the idea had been sown then, he didn’t discuss it in detail with any of us. So the question of him thinking of casting anyone at that point is ludicrous.”
The 28-year-old reacting to rumours of his remuneration for his father’s film said, “Whether I will charge Rs 12 crores or less, is something even I don’t know because nothing is on paper.”
“The film is still in the final draft stage. Yes, a big film corporation is on board, but the budget, my remuneration as an actor, dad’s remuneration as a technician and other aspects can only be talked about after it is put in black and white. Everything currently being said about Mausam is speculation,” Shahid insists.
