After Rajeev Khandelwal, Samir Soni HITS BACK at Karan Johar, Farah Khan’s remark over high star fees: “You can’t be signing a big star for Rs 100 crores and then that these guys take a lot of money”

Actor Samir Soni has joined the ongoing debate about escalating star fees in Bollywood, offering a counterpoint to the views expressed by filmmakers Karan Johar and Farah Khan.

The discussion around rising costs in the film industry has been gaining traction, with filmmakers expressing concerns about the impact on overall profitability. Karan Johar and Farah Khan have been vocal about the exorbitant fees charged by top actors and the associated overhead costs. Samir Soni REACTS to Karan Johar, Farah Khan’s Comments On Rising Fees However, Samir Soni has a different perspective. In a recent interview with Ujjwal Trivedi, he questioned the filmmakers' role in the escalating expenses. "If you think the expenses are rising, you are the ones who is paying for all of it. You can’t be signing a big star for Rs 100 crores and then say that these guys take a lot of money. Kuch kami toh aap mein bhi hai (There are some shortcomings in you, too). Because otherwise, there are people who will work for Rs 1 crore also and for Rs 50 lakh also. You’ve done this!” Rajeev Khandelwal Criticises Karan Johar, Farah Khan Complaining About Rising Star Fees Soni's stance echoes similar sentiments expressed by actor Rajeev Khandelwal, who criticised Karan Johar and Farah Khan for their remarks. During a conversation with Siddharth Kanan, Khandelwal argued that the filmmakers themselves are responsible for creating the current market for exorbitant fees by offering inflated paychecks. He said, “Till the time when Rs 25 crores was working for you, it was fine, but now that it’s not, you’re coming out and complaining about high salaries. Who spoiled them? You created these monsters.”
