B-town stars often make headlines for leaving the project amidst when they don’t get demanded fees from the makers. Sonam Kapoor is currently making headlines for completely opposite reason. Filmmaker, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra reveals that Sonam Kapoor didn’t charge a hefty amount for her appearance in Farhan Akhtar starrer Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. She charged only Rs.11 for doing this project.
Farhan Akhtar and Sonam Kapoor starrer Bhaag Milkha Bhaag went on to become a box-office hit film. Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra in his autobiography ‘The Stranger In The Mirror’ has mentioned about Sonam Kapoor’s fees for Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. He shared that after knowing about Biro’s character, the actress said yes to the film. Although, she didn’t had a big appearance, her screen presence was appreciated by many. The filmmaker wrote, “Sonam Kapoor benevolently accepted to play a guest appearance for a princely sum of Rs. 11 only for her brief portrayal of Biro.”
In a recent conversation with Bollywood Hungama, the filmmaker was apparently quizzed on the same. To which he said, “She(Sonam) chose to accept Rs. 11. She had a special appearance in the film. Both of us shared an amazing journey with Delhi-6 before that. She told me that she is needed for just 7 days for the shoot and she praised us for trying to say something so beautiful, about the partition of this country and the spirit of Milkha Singh. So she wanted to contribute to the film as well. It was very nice of her.”
