It was being speculated that Aamir Khan would make a 70 per cent profit from the proceeds of the collections of the Reema Kagti directed Dhuan. The movie is being co-produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani's Excel Entertainment and Aamir Khan Productions.
But now this percentage seems to have changed. A source from the Excel camp said the deal was close to 50 per cent earlier which not many believed, especially after his prolonged hiatus. Now the grapevine has it that the perfectionist Khan has asked for an 80 per cent share in the profit. We hope its just a rumour and will be clarified soon.
After all, there are many people in the industry who dream of working with the three Khans who are now behaving like 3 idiots demanding more than a lion's share of the profits for lending just their name to a movie project. Salman Khan apparently is demanding close to 50 crore while SRK charges an obscene amount in advance from the buyers for his movies even before they have seen the first frame of the film.
We hope the Khans take a lesson from actor turned producer Akshay Kumar's story that went downhill thanks to his unreasonable demands.
