Shraddha Kapoor Considers Producer Role for Grover Biopic
10 Aug
Summary
- Shraddha Kapoor may become producer for Ashneer Grover biopic.
- Bollywood stars increasingly seek profit shares over upfront fees.
- Akshay Kumar's backend deal offers potential for higher earnings.
Shraddha Kapoor is reportedly considering a significant shift in her remuneration for the proposed Ashneer Grover biopic, potentially taking on a producer credit instead of a reported Rs 20 crore acting fee. This move would allow her to secure a share of the film's intellectual property rights.
The Bollywood industry is witnessing a broader trend where established stars are increasingly negotiating profit-sharing and backend arrangements. This recalibration of fees is driven by the growing unpredictability of theatrical business.
Akshay Kumar exemplifies this strategy, having reportedly accepted a nominal fee for 'Welcome to the Jungle' while securing a substantial share of the film's intellectual property through his involvement in financing and ancillary rights sales.
This model offers the potential for greater financial returns if the film performs well commercially. Discussions in the industry suggest that major stars are exploring such hybrid remuneration structures.
Kapoor's potential producer role in the Ashneer Grover biopic, where she is slated to portray Madhuri Jain Grover, aligns with this evolving industry practice, emphasizing a shared risk and reward approach.
