Kriti Sanon raised questions on inequality in Bollywood

Fees and budget debate in Bollywood

The discussion on the fees of stars and the increasing budget of films continues in Bollywood. Actress and producer Kriti Sanon has expressed her clear opinion on this subject. He says that in the film industry, male artists are given more priority, while female artists are paid less despite equal hard work. Kriti also told that when there is pressure on the budget, the first thing that is suggested is to reduce the fees of female artists.

Kriti’s perspective on the workings of the industry

In a recent interview, Kriti Sanon spoke openly about the workings of Bollywood. He said that deep patriarchy still exists in the industry. According to him, producers often feel uncomfortable with women-oriented films, as they feel that these films will not perform as well at the box office as films with big male stars. Kriti said that this thinking is slowly changing, but is still not completely finished.

Kriti’s displeasure over the disparity in fees

Kriti Sanon also said that many times female artists are asked to reduce their fees to control the budget of the film. At the same time, the fees and conditions of big male stars are not challenged. He clarified that this imbalance has been a part of the industry for a long time. Kriti believes that the success of films does not depend only on stardom, but it is decided by the hard work of the entire team. Therefore, it is not appropriate to give more importance to any one category. She also said that women artists need to express their views strongly.


Thinking changed after becoming a producer

Kriti is now not only an actress but also a producer. He says that after coming into the field of production, he has got the opportunity to understand the economic challenges of film production. He told that many times unnecessary expenses are increased in films. The large staff, luxury facilities and extra arrangements that come with stars weigh heavily on producers. Kriti jokingly said that it is more expensive than necessary for an artist to have multiple cooks and separate chefs.
