Kajol Drags Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan Yet Again As She Breaks Silence On Female Actors Demanding Pay Parity: “When You Start Making A Wonder Woman For India…”

Kajol sparked a controversy a few days back with her joke on Pathaan collection. She mentioned how she wants to ask Shah Rukh Khan how much his film really made at the box office. The remark was taken negatively with many questioning if she hints at the number being inflated. Well, she’s landed in turmoil yet again as she dragged the Siddharth Anand directorial once again while talking about pay parity. Scroll below for more details!

Many actresses in the past have demanded equal pay as their male colleagues. Kareena Kapoor Khan was unfortunate to have received backlash over allegedly demanding a huge pay-to-play Sita in Ramayana. Priyanka Chopra Jonas also revealed how she struggled all these years but was finally paid an equal sum as her co-star Richard Madden in Russo Brothers’ Citadel. Deepika Padukone recently revealed rejecting a movie because she wasn’t getting an equal salary as the producers had to ‘accommodate the male lead.’

At the Jagran Film Festival held in Delhi, Kajol, who was asked about pay parity, responded, “When you start making a ‘Wonder Woman’ for India and it does equally well as a ‘Pathaan’, then maybe there will be pay equality.”
