Kareena Kapoor Khan to be Paid More Than Alia Bhatt in Karan Johar's Takht?

Kareena Kapoor's last film Veere Di Wedding was trolley for several reasons but it still went on to become a successful film at the box office. Since the storyline of the film revolved around Kalindi (Kareena) and her friends, it wouldn't be wrong to say that she played a titular role in the movie. So, considering that the film cashed in a lot of money because of Bebo's stardom, the actress has apparently now raised her fees. According to a report in mid-day, Kareena has asked for a whopping 50 per cent hike for her next project.

A source was quoted saying, "Though Veere was a four-girl project, the film's opening and initial footfalls can be credited to Kareena's stardom. It is only fair that she capitalise on her star power, which is why she has increased her fee for the next few films. She apparently charged a ballpark figure of R7 crore for Veere Di Wedding. Her upcoming films will have her quoting Rs 10 crore-plus, negotiable depending on the number of days she is required to work on the project and the value she is bringing to the table."

And now that Karan Johar has announced his two new projects - Good News and Takht, which Kareena is going to be a part of, it goes without saying that she will be the highest paid actress among others including Alia Bhatt, who has also been roped in for Takht. We think it's a smart move. Good going, Kareena!
