Now that’s what you call business acumen. Actor Ranveer Singh has high hopes from his next release Bajirao Mastani (also starring the dusky damsel Priyanka Chopra and the sultry siren Deepka Padukone) so much so that he has not charged any fee for acting in it, but has decided to engage in profit-sharing.
This means whatever amount of money the movie, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, earns, Ranveer S will get his share. And if the grapevine is to be believed, he is going to get the lion’s share. However, if the film comes a cropper at the box office, the lion will not roar ... only meow.
