Post the success of Bodyguard and Ek Tha Tiger, Salman
Khan got pricy. Ranbir Kapoor has followed suit after the success of Barfi. He was
to be signed for a chocolate brand. However, he demanded a whopping sum of Rs.
20 crores for the same. It was a humongous sum that made the manufacturers
think for the second time.
It was actually a sour experience
for the firm who were looking to sign Ranbir Kapoor. They were hopeful that they
would be able to sign the star. However, when they heard the price Ranbir was
demanding, they were crestfallen. They hadn’t left with any choice at all. Almost
reluctantly, they had to let go the Bollywood hero.
There is hardly any doubt that the
popularity of Ranbir Kapoor is on the rise. After the success of Barfi, he
scaled new heights. That is the reason the firm wanted to have him as the face
of their products.
The story does not end here. According
to Ranbir Kapoor, he had never been approached to have a deal. A source tells
that there are many brand owners who want to sign Ranbir up. However, a deal
never fail due to the monitory issues.
