Kriti Sanon is currently enjoying the success of her latest release, Crew, which stars her alongside Tabu and Kareena Kapoor Khan. However, in a recent interview with Film Companion, the actress discussed the issue of pay parity prevailing in the industry and wondered why some of her male co-stars get paid 10 times more than her. She said, "The difference in payment (between male actors and female actors') currently is huge for actually no reason. Sometimes, for no reason. Sometimes, you feel like it's not like that person has given a hit in 10 years, then why is he getting paid 10 times." The actress also explained how producers justify the pay gap by citing the importance of pre-release revenue streams like digital and satellite rights. According to the actress, male-centric films tend to do better in these areas compared to female-led films, leading to higher budgets and, subsequently, higher pay for male actors.
