10 Jan
Summary
- Mohanlal demanded Rs 30 crore for a cameo role in Chiranjeevi's film.
- The producers expected Mohanlal to appear as a goodwill gesture without pay.
- The incident highlights the financial struggles in the Telugu film industry.
The Telugu film industry is facing an undeniable financial crunch, with a recent development involving an untitled Chiranjeevi starrer directing attention to these pressures. Director Bobby had envisioned a pivotal cameo for Malayalam superstar Mohanlal, similar to Amitabh Bachchan's impactful appearance in 'Andha Kanoon'. The producers, banking on the camaraderie between Chiranjeevi and Mohanlal, hoped for a fee-less guest role.
However, the collaboration hit a snag when Mohanlal reportedly asked for Rs 30 crore for his cameo. This demand left the film's producers in shock, as such a fee is exorbitant even for a full-length role in the current market. Consequently, they are now exploring other Telugu stars willing to fill the role without remuneration.
