Tanishaa Mukerji Comes In Support Of Actors’ Demands; Says ‘Every Star Will Have Their Tantrums Otherwise…’

Tanishaa Mukerji, who comes from a filmy background of actors like Tanuja (Mother) and Kajol (sister), recently opened up about the rising film production costs due to actor’s demands. Her remarks came after filmmakers Anurag Kashyap and Farah Khan have pointed out the matter on a very serious note. Tanishaa blamed the corporate companies for it. She also stated that every star will have tantrums otherwise they won’t be considered stars. The Luv You Shankar actress fumed at people who said actors’ have a lot of demands. 

In an interview with Indian Express; Tanishaa said “Suppose an individual producer goes to the actor and says I want to do a film with you and I can pay you Rs 5 crore. On the other hand, these corporate companies jump in and say ‘we need 30 days from you, we will pay you Rs 30 crore’, how can an individual producer compete with a production house?”

She continued, “You cannot point out that this particular actor has so many vans without considering the amount of time he is spending on your set. It’s different when an actor like Akshay Kumar says I can only work 9-5, then he goes home and does his gym. Is the actor you are working with is also just doing 9-5? How dare you tell ‘actors ke nakhre’? First point out if he is willing to be on your set for 14 hours? Is he willing to do an 18 hour shift with you? Consider all this and then comment. It is after considering and analysing these things you can talk about their tantrums and call their demands for gyms and chefs in their vanity vans unrealistic. Of course, he will need a chef, how is he going to manage his own food, workout, if he doesn’t have much time off your shoot?”
