Kartik Aryan To Share Profits With Dhamaka Producers?

 The days when  A-list actors charged through the roof, and then some more, sometimes their fee being more than the  budget of  the entire  film, are over.

Big stars are  trying to find a way out of the current financial crisis that has hit every  industry. The entertainment  industry harder than most for its high stakes.A-list stars who were  adamant  on receiving fees  in double-digit crores are  now   happy to share with the film’s profits as and when the surplus amount rolls  in.

 This is  the payment model that Kartik Aryan has accepted for his  next film Dhamaka.

A  source  close  to  the development informs, “It  makes sense, doesn’t it? To have  stars accepting their remuneration only when  the profits  show  upon the budget sheets. Kartik  has teamed  up  as co-producer  with the film’s  director Ram Madhvani in a profit-sharing agreement.”

Dhamaka is  the remake  of  a Korean film The Terror  Live. The Dhamaka makers didn’t even  try to hide the  source  , as the first poster bore a striking resemblance to the  original  Korean  poster.

The  film is a one-set thriller  and therefore moderately budgeted. The ‘Think Big’ mantra has been put on hold  in the  entertainment industry. For now it’s ‘Think Manageable’.
