In a recent interview with Ujjwal Trivedi on his YouTube channel, the Made in Heaven actor said that when KJo and Farah think the expenses are rising, they should also think that they are the ones who are paying for it.

Samir added, “You can’t be signing a big star for Rs 100 crore 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!”

Not just Samir Soni, actor Rajeev Khandelwal also recently called out Karan Johar over his remark where he mentioned that actors these days ask for Rs 35 crore but struggle to deliver Rs 3.5 crore openings. Rajeev told Siddharth Kanan, “But who agreed to give them the Rs 35 crore in the first place? If not Rs 35 crore, someone must’ve given them Rs 30 crore.”

Rajeev wondered if it was KJo only who used to give them Rs 25 crores and till the time that was working, the director was okay and when it’s not working anymore, all blame has come down on an actor’s salaries. “Who spoiled them? You created these monsters,” Khandelwal questioned.
