Talking about Dimple Kapadia to a tabloid, Homi said that he has earned the senior actress's blind trust by ensuring that she is always in character and never strikes a false note on the screen. Dimple Kapadia has been a part of every film made by Homi Adajania from Being Cyrus to Finding Fanny to Cocktail and now Angrezi medium. To this, the director said that he casts her out of the fear of getting beaten up if he did otherwise. He further said that it was producer Dinesh Vijan' idea to get Kareena to play the daughter, Naina. Homi revealed that the narrative takes a turn with Kareena's entry.

RRR Rajamouli's never ending saga, actors take a pay cut

Image
Secretly, sections of the Telugu film industry call it the new-age Mughal-e-Azam . The never-ending shooting of Rajamouli’s latest RRR is turning the film into an impossibly expensive project. Sources say the producers are at their wit’s end as to how to control the spiraling budget. Sources say both the leading men Ramcharan Teja and NTR Jr have offered to waive a part of their fee to economize the film’s out-of-control budget. Says a source, “The two leading men are willing to take a cut. Ajay Devgn is not charging any money. And Alia Bhatt may also do her work for a token fee. Everybody is co-operating." Now if only RRR makes it finally on Sankranti 2020.
