Priyanka Chopra, the sizzling hot sexy bombshell who was approached by Dhoom director Sanjay Gadhvi for his upcoming flick 7 Days In Paris, has been thrown out of the project due to her outrageous demand of Rs 5 crore for working in the film.
Sources say that initially the producers and director Sanjay Gadhvi were taken aback at the beautiful lass’ demand but later tried to reason it out to some reasonable level. However, Piggy Chops was adamant on getting the full amount of Rs 5 crore if she was wanted in the film. Finally, Sanjay Gadhvi, who had directed the super duper hit film ‘Dhoom’ with Hrithik and Aishwarya for Yashraj, decided to dump Priyanka and wait for some other bollywood babe to work in the film.
One theory that is doing rounds in the industry about reasons Priyanka Chopra demanded such a huge amount is that she thought she was doing a favor by working opposite Imran Khan in ‘7 Days in Paris’. Sources say that Priyanka’s reasoning was simple that Imran Khan might have been successful in ‘Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na’, but his ‘Kidnap’ with Sanjay Gadhvi had bombed at the box office, and so the upcoming film will largely depend on her craze at the box office, and hence the demand was justified.
Another theory in this regard has to do with Priyanka Chopra’s upcoming mega- budget Yashraj flick ‘Pyar Impossible’. Priyanka has been paired in the film with Uday Chopra (Yash Chopra’s son) and to compensate this, Yashraj Films paid the oomph queen a sum of Rs 3 crore, which is great, considering the fact that Yashraj never pays handsomely to its stars.
Priyanka Chopra wanted the same Yashraj yardstick to apply in the case of Sanjay Gadhvi’s flick ‘7 Days in Paris’ and so demanded her price to work with a lesser star like Imran Khan. However, in this case director Sanjay Gadhvi and producers thought otherwise and threw Priyanka out of the project.It may be recalled that Priyanka Chopra’s latest films like ‘Dostana’, ‘Fashion’ etc, which proved to be super successful at the box office, have put her on a high pedestal, and hence her demand for Rs 5 crore was not fully unjustified (at least Priyanka thinks so).
However, as ‘7 Days in Paris’ is scheduled to go on the floors by next month, director Sanjay Gadhvi has already initiated talks with other bollywood hot babes. Sources reveal that Gadhvi is already in advanced stage of talks with southern sensation Asin, who had made her bollywood debut opposite Aamir Khan in ‘Ghajni’.
There is also talk that Imran Khan’s heroine Genelia D’Souza from his hit film ‘Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na’ may be roped in, if talks with Asin fail to come to some positive conclusion.
However, director Sanjay Gadhvi and Priyanka Chopra preferred to keep mum on the issue and remained unavailable for comment.
