The Coronavirus pandemic brought the film industry across the nation to a complete standstill. Now, as filmmakers are gearing up to resume shoots after three months of lockdown, celebrities are reportedly offered pay-cuts. As producers have incurred a substantial amount of loss, actors are now asked to slash down their salaries. According to latest reports, Rakul Preet Singh is among those who have taken a pay-cut. A leading daily's report mentioned that the actress who is a popular face in Bollywood and down South, has accepted a 50% cut in her remuneration.
As per the report, the 50% pay-cut can be estimated to Rs.75 lacs per project and Rakul is said to have happily accepted the deduction to compensate for producers' losses. She is yet to make an official announcement regarding the same.
