Mohanlal Exits Chiranjeevi Film Over Rs 30 Cr Fee
Mohanlal was asked to do a small part in a Chiranjeevi film for free.
But Mohanlal wanted Rs 30 crore for it.
The filmmakers couldn't pay, so Mohanlal left the project.
They had to find another actor to do the part without pay.
This shows that the Telugu film industry is having money problems.
Mohanlal was initially asked to do a cameo in a Chiranjeevi film for free.
Mohanlal requested Rs 30 crore for the cameo, which the makers could not afford.
The makers had to find a Telugu star to replace Mohanlal without remuneration.
This incident highlights the financial crunch in the Telugu film industry.
The film is currently in production and directed by Bobby.
