Director Shankar is perhaps the most expensive filmmaker in India who charges a bomb. He is the man who took the pay cheques of directors to the next level for first-time. With his latest offing I, made with a budget of nearly Rs 200 Crore, received mixed reviews and difficult to do wonders at Box Office, the wide discussion in Tamil Nadu is that whether director Shankar cuts his remuneration?
Director Sreenu Vaitla offered to do a film for “free” with Aagadu producers, director Trivikram Srinivas and actor Pawan Kalyan returned part of their remunerations to producer BVSN Prasad for “piracy fiasco”. So, Kollywood is waiting to see whether Shankar admits his failure and cut his pay for the film. Already distributors of Lingaa are vying up for Rajini and producer Rockline for their losses. Although I is faring well now, trade pundits predict it will not be easy for the film to sustain long with this “poor” word of mouth talk. Let’s wait and see how Gentleman Shankar reacts.
