From Kriti Sanon To Ayushmann Khurana; Actors Who Have SLASHED Their PRICES After Box Office FAILURES!

Only a few Hindi films, such as The Kashmir Files, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, and Alia Bhatt's Gangubai Kathiawadi, had successful box office runs this year, indicating that Bollywood is currently going through a difficult period. However, several of the biggest blockbusters fell flat on their faces.

Laal Singh Chaddha,’ starring Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan, was released just recently to much anticipation. The movie, however, had a disastrous opening weekend and is currently ranked as one of the worst flops of the year.

Filmmakers encourage actors to accept a pay cut after delivering flops, yet actors raise their rates after every successful picture. Let's look at Bollywood artists who decreased their rates after several years, from Kriti Sanon to Ayushmann Khurana.

Take A Look:-

Kriti Sanon

According to rumours, Kriti Sanon has reduced her rates due to the 'Adipurush' effect. Due to the actress's portrayal of Sita in the movie, she has received a great deal of unwarranted criticism. Kriti's mother also posted a mysterious message on Facebook in response to the criticism of her daughter's movie, saying that instead of passing judgement, one should consider the motivations behind a person's actions.

Akshay Kumar

Akshay Kumar, who was considered to be one of the most bankable superstars as well, cut his fees as a result of his films' underwhelming box office performances.

Varun Dhawan

Varun Dhawan, who was most recently seen in 'Bhediya' and is preparing for his upcoming releases of 'Bawaal' and 'Citadel,' has lowered his rates, and online users claim that this is just because his films are no longer successful.

Shahid Kapoor

We wonder how much Shahid Kapoor used to charge before he supposedly reduced his high fees after being reportedly paid Rs 35 crore for 'Bloody Daddy.'

Kartik Aaryan

After 'Shehzada's failure, Kartik Aaryan allegedly charged less, however it was later claimed that this information was untrue.

Ranveer Singh

We doubt the veracity of the rumour that Ranveer Singh has decreased his pays because his most recent movie, 'Cirkus,' too had a poor box office performance.

Ayushmann Khurrana

Ayushmann Khurrana has struggled at the box office, and following the release of 'Anek,' the actor has reduced his pay as well.
