Kriti Sanon recently made waves when she casually discussed this issue while promoting her upcoming movie, “Bhediya.”

Speaking of high-profile Bollywood productions, it is indisputable that there is a salary gap between male and female actresses.

Kriti will soon be starring with Varun Dhawan, who told her that other female actors have also requested higher pay for films and cited instances. He clarified that he wasn’t referring to actors who are more experienced than him.

When Varun and Kriti were asked if they had ever had to abandon a project because they had requested too much money, the dialogue started. Varun added that his other female co-stars have been taking “that stand” for a long time, long before Kriti, after Kriti revealed that she had turned down some films because she felt she wasn’t being paid enough and was standing up for herself.

In a now-viral video of the same conversation, Kriti is heard saying, “Too much is subjective… No, I didn’t get a movie. I declined since they wouldn’t pay what I considered to be fair. But if I truly adore a movie and can’t bear to part with it, then… Then Varun said, “I was just about to say that. Money should never be an issue for any performer, in my opinion, provided they truly love the project they are working on.

But Varun, honestly speaking, I have come to realize it the harder way because I used to be like that, Kriti responded to his statement. You need to maintain a balance since, as you (yourself) have informed me, you must appreciate yourself at some point as well.

Then Varun continued, “You have to… Money was not even a topic of conversation when I worked on movies like October or Badlapur. I simply wanted to work on those movies. “I have done many films for considerably less than what I charge today,” Kriti continued. I already had. But there are moments when you feel undervalued or like others are trying to control you, and in those situations, you need to respect yourself.

Yes, then you have to make a decision, he continued. It occurs at every step, depending on your working relationships. Varun ‘totally agreed’ with Kriti when she claimed that this occurs more frequently with women and said, ‘100%. She is right that it does happen to women when it comes to compensation; I completely concur. That has happened.

Varun told Kriti, “They started taking that stand even before you,” in response to her statement, “That’s also because they are standing up for themselves.” Varun responded, “No, no,” when Kriti questioned whether he was referring to her elders. “Ok, then,” Kriti retorted.

Speaking of Bhediya, this is Varun and Kriti’s second project together following the hugely successful 2015 movie “Dilwale.” The main character of Bhediya is Bhaskar (Varun), a werewolf who is bitten by one and turns into one on every full moon night. Kriti will be portrayed as a medical professional. Additionally, Deepak Dobriyal and Abhishek Banerjee play significant roles in the movie.
