Has Kajal's remuneration come down with flops?

Jalapathy Gudelli 11 Sep 2019

Kajal Aggarwal has been dishing out a spate of flops at the box-office. Her recent two movies ‘Sita’ and ‘Ranarangam’ were huge flops. Her career graph is looking south, thanks to her wrong choices. It is not just in Telugu and Tamil that the beauty is going through a lean phase but also in Hindi.

She is doing a Hindi-language film titled ‘Mumbai Saga’, which has been directed by Sanjay Gupta. The 32-year-old actress is doing it by charging a mere Rs 50 lakh.

Just till a couple of years ago, Kajal used to charge Rs 1.50 Cr in Telugu. Whatever happened to that Kajal? Why is she agreeing to do films for 1/3rd of that fee? Is it because she is hankering after offers? To make matters worse, Kajal’s ‘Paris Paris’ (Tamil) has been delayed endlessly.

Kajal’s market is at an all-time low. Meanwhile, Sanjay Gupta has rubbished the reports that she has been replaced in ‘Mumbai Saga’ by Tamannaah Bhatia.
