Ranbir Kapoor, who was charging as much as 13-14 times more than the fellow star cast of his second release of the year, ‘Animal’, has slashed the hefty remuneration by 50% to ease up on the production budget.
As reported by an Indian tabloid, the actor compromised on his prevailing market value of INR70 crore for a film, only to charge INR30-35 crore.

Reportedly, in order to ‘improve the production value’ of the gangster flick, the ‘Brahmastra’ actor cut up on his own remuneration to help the producers with the additional costs.
However, against this concession, Kapoor has entered a profit-sharing deal for the project, similar to the one, SRK had with his comeback project ‘Pathaan’.
Apart from Kapoor, ‘Animal’ also features Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Rashmika Mandanna and Tripti Dimri in pivotal roles.

The noir action thriller is written and directed by South filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga (of ‘Arjun Reddy’ and its remake ‘Kabir Singh’).
After being delayed from the original August release, ‘Animal’ is scheduled to hit theatres on December 1. The film will be released in five languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam.
