Scam 1992 Actor Vikram Kapadia Says Aditya Chopra, Karan Johar Don't Pay Enough: 'YRF, Dharma Have Ego'

Actor Vikram Kapadia – best known for starring in movies like Kapoor and Sons and Yodha , and shows like The Night Manager , Made in Heaven , and Scam 1992 – said that production houses like Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions and Aditya Chopra’s Yash Raj Films pay actors less than their dues. Talking about the same in a new interview with Bollywood Now, Kapadia said, “Yash Raj and Dharma have this ego that we are Yash Raj and Dharma so we will pay you a little less, but you should be happy because we are paying you. I think they do that with everyone.

I think that’s why actors are concerned.” A post shared by Yash Raj Films (@yrf) However, Kapadia revealed that during his tenure as a writer at Yash Raj Films, he was always paid on time. “Yash Raj paid me well as a writer, but hoga na kahi pe that hum Yash Raj hain.

You are getting a role, they are giving you a break. So maybe the value is a little less but they never delay in payment,” he explained. Kapadia’s claim comes at a time when rising entourage costs and hefty actor fees have become a talking point in the industry.

In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, Karan Johar revealed he doesn’t pay hefty fees to actors now as he used to do during his initial days in career. A post shared by Karan Johar (@karanjohar) Speaking about the same to The Hollywood Reporter India, Johar said, “I don’t pay any more. I’ve said, ‘Thank you very much, I can’t pay you.

’ I am not paying anyone.
