Kangana Ranaut takes dig at Priyanka Chopra over her statement on pay gap: A-listers do films for free only I get paid like male actors..

According to a recent chat on pay gap in Bollywood as Priyanka Chopra pointed out that she was never paid what a male actor in the same film was getting..

Taking an indirect dig at this, Kangana Ranaut said that she is the only actress in Bollywood who has demanded and got equal pay..

She said that it was difficult to begin with since the makers werent used to actresses demanding equal pay and what didnt help was that the female stars were ready to do roles for free, the same ones she was negotiating for...

I can say with confidence most A-listers (women) do films for free along with offering other favours because they fear roles will go to the right people and then shrewdly release articles that they are the highest paid, haha..
