Darsheel Safary demands Rs. 1.25 crores…
Darsheel Safary is one who has become a superstar instantly with just one film, ‘Taare Zameen Par’. Now everyone wants to cast him in films and other projects. He is the center of attraction everywhere he goes. Recently in film awards, he was given huge respect by the celebrities when he came on stage in a dhooli. He is riding high these days. His price has touched the sky. Ajay Monga, the film producer, wanted to cast him in his upcoming film, ‘Padduram’, so he approached to his business manager Shobha Sant, who when uttered the star’s fees, Monga had to see the outside gate. Yes, that’s true, his fee is no less than the big stars. His manager demanded Rs. 1.25 crores to appear as a child star in the film.
Plum films as well as endorsement offers started pouring in for the 11-yearold Darsheel after the success of Taare Zameen Par. He is now everywhere ebing a chief guest at many occasions, enacting the showstopper for dress designer Neeta Lulla’s Lakme Fashion Week and all that.
When approached to Monga, he said that he had had met Darsheel in the presence of his manager and mother at Yash Raj Studios.
He expresses, “I am keen that Darsheel should do my film. But, I am making a small budget film worth Rs 1.5 crore. Paying Darsheel Rs 1.25 crore makes my film an unfeasible proposition. Aaj kal to bade bade stars ki picture nahin chalti hai.”
Really, you have become a big star, Darsheel…..so much money it is…!
