Aishwarya’s demands take Ramu to brink of bankruptcy
An Indian national newspaper has revealed that actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has left producer Ram Gopal Verma penniless.
Apparently, the former Miss World made Ramu fork out for top of the end designer material for her costumes and look in Sarkar Raj. The price tags of designer clothes have left him on the brink of bankruptcy and he is now hoping the film itself will resurrect him.
Says a source from the production house, “Ash plays Anita Rajan, an aggressive and ambitious business tycoon – she is the CEO of a power plant. We gave Ash a pair of designer glasses as part of her look in the film. But she didn’t like them much and told us that she would get a pair for herself. It sounded fine until we got the bill in hand! Ash finally selected a pair of Gucci glares from Harrods when she was in London. The glares do make a style statement as far as her look in the film is concerned, but imagine spending Rs 10 lakh just for that, and then sending the bill to the production house!”
Ramu is in the middle of a financial crisis as his production house has suffered severe losses, what with last year’s flick Aag being one of the biggest disasters ever.
