The report claimed that the actors continued to promote the film without payment as they did not want to abandon the project.

Reports of Vashu Bhagnani’s Pooja Entertainment facing Rs 250 crore losses have been making headlines for a long time. Amid this, a new report has claimed that Tiger Shroff, Sonakshi Sinha, Manushi Chhillar and Alaya F are yet to be paid for their roles in Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, which was headlined by Akshay Kumar.

The Indian Express quoted a source as saying, “Tiger Shroff too has not received his fees for the film. He has maintained his silence on the non-payment of his dues for Bade Miyan Chote Miyan but after learning that the crew and the support staff, who gave the film their all, have also not been paid, he wants the production house to clear the dues immediately.”

The source added that Sonakshi Sinha, Manushi Chhillar and Alaya F have also not been paid for their roles. “None of these actors in the film have received their dues either. They completed their work on the film and even after requesting them a few times, there was no reply. They also promoted the film because they didn’t want to leave the film hanging, but there was no payment made,” the source added.

For the unversed, Vashu Bhagnani is the founder of the production house Pooja Entertainment. He began his company in 1986 but it wasn’t until 1995 that he debuted as a producer. He backed Govinda and Karisma Kapoor’s Coolie No. 1, which emerged as one of the biggest hits of that year. He went on to produce and distribute several films in the 1990s. These include Hero No. 1 (1997), Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya (1998), Biwi No.1 (1999) and Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein (2001).

Now, he is facing flak after junior artists and crew who worked on Bade Miyan Chote Miyan claimed that while the main actors of the film have received massive payments, they are yet to receive their dues. Speaking to ETimes earlier, Vashu Bhagnani, owner of Pooja Entertainment, urged these artists to speak to the company.

Vashu Bhagnani said that these artists should present contracts or file claims for resolution with the company. He said that those individuals with legitimate claims will be given a resolution after 60 days. He urged individuals not to resort to pressure and coercion.
