Aditya Dhar’s film ‘Dhurandhar’ and its sequel have broken records at the box office. Along with Ranveer Singh’s action in the film, actor Rakesh Bedi’s character ‘Jamil Jamali’ is being discussed a lot.
Recently there were reports that the makers, happy with Rakesh Bedi’s performance, have given him a bonus of Rs 1 crore apart from the contract. Now Rakesh Bedi himself has broken his silence on these news and has responded to it in an interesting manner.
There was discussion about getting more bonus than fees According to a report in Bollywood Hungama, Rakesh Bedi was initially given a total fee of Rs 50 lakh for both the films. But seeing the huge success of the sequel and the public response to the character of ‘Jameel Jamali’, director Aditya Dhar and his brother Lokesh Dhar gave him a check of Rs 1 crore as a bonus.
Rakesh said – tell me also where the money is When NDTV asked Rakesh Bedi about this Rs 1 crore bonus, he refuted these claims in his own style. He jokingly said, “Brother, where is this money? I don’t even know with whom we have kept it.”
He further laughed and said that if anyone knows where the money is, then definitely tell them, they will go and bring it themselves because till now no such amount has come in their bank account. The actor clarified that these news are just rumors at the moment.
Rakesh Bedi’s craze increased at the age of 70 Rakesh Bedi’s role in the ‘Dhurandhar’ franchise was initially a supporting character, but a big twist in the sequel brought him to the center of the story. There was such a combination of comedy and emotions in the character of Jamil Jamali that the audience liked it very much. The effect of this success was that now many big brands are also approaching 70 year old Rakesh Bedi for their advertisements.
