EXCLUSIVE: Stree producers Raj & DK upset with Dinesh Vijan over non payment of dues; read on
A source revealed to us that Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K are yet to receive full payment from their Stree's co-producer Dinesh Vijan.
Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor starrer Stree is touted to be one of the best films Bollywood witnessed in the year 2018. The film is a horror comedy and people loved each aspect of it from the start to the end. Stree is directed by Amar Kaushik and it is written by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K. The film is produced by Dinesh Vijan and Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K. as 50-50 partners under their banners Maddock Films and D2R Films.
Recently, several reports started making the rounds about the splitting of profits between Dinesh Vijan and Raj & DK. A source revealed that Raj & DK, whose brainchild was Stree was sidelined when it came to the payment of dues. The source stated, "Trying to cheat someone of their money is one thing but to undermine their hard work is ridiculous! Stree is out and out Raj & DK’s creation. Whether it was writing the script, story and screenplay, getting Amar Kaushik (their first AD on Go Goa Gone) to direct the film or attaching Rajkummar Rao to star in it."
Moreover, even Amar had said that it was Raj & DK, who told him to direct Stree. The source further said, "Raj & DK were already underway with producing the film when Dinesh contacted them and convinced them to let him be part of the project. Everyone who worked on the film — the actors and the crew — know their contribution to the film."
The source went on to say, "This was a passion project for Raj & DK, and they were not only overseeing the shoot on the sets throughout the shoot in Chanderi and Bhopal but were also leading every single process from casting, finding the crew, recce, shooting to editing, music, mixing and the final prints."
Reports have it, about Rs 20 crore are due to Raj & DK but they haven't received a single rupee yet from Dinesh.
