But now we hear that Sridevi’s salary was not paid in full, and this has become an issue. The producers of Puli, SKT Studios have clarified about this in a public statement. They say that they had booked Sridevi for Puli for three crores—2.6 crores as salary and 0.3 crores as service tax—and she had been paid according to the booking agreement.

He refused to listen to them when they explained that the producers retained such rights and the main stars of Puli like Vijay, Shruti Haasan Shruti Hassan is an Indian film actress born on 28 >> Read More... and " Sudeep Sanjeev Sudeep, known by the short name, Sudeep is >> Read More... " had not asked for this at all. But Boney Kapoor was adamant and said that Sridevi would come for the rest of the shooting only if his demands were met.

In order that shooting may go on uninterrupted and considering that huge sums had been spent on erecting grand sets, besides the fact that other stars would be kept on hold if Sridevi did not come, SKT Studios paid Boney 15 lakhs during the Telugu dubbing and gave him 20% of the Hindi satellite rights for the Hindi dubbing.

Besides all this, they also paid Sridevi the initial amount agreed to. They had also spent a lot on her for special costume designer, marketing designer, etc. In spite of all these issues, she did not come for the Hindi or Telugu audio launch functions. Besides, the production house had IT raids and also suffered losses on many fronts.

So they requested Sridevi to waive the extra amount that her husband was asking as they were in no position to pay the added sum now. Besides, they had already paid her what she had been booked for.

Now we at Nettv4u.com hope that all this will be settled amicably!
