Priyanka bags a Big Deal

Priyanka Chopra, the beautiful Bollywood actress who is yet to deliver a substantial performance has bagged a big deal. Priyanka has become the first actress to sign a three film deal with Ronnie Screwala’s production house. Priyanka says to Delhi Times that “The best part of the deal is that I have a say in deciding and finalising the concept of the film. This is something that not many actors get to do. I think this is the most exciting part as you get to work on the film right from the basics.” When asked about what kind of films she will be working in, Priyanka replied that, “It is too early to say anything as we have just signed the deal.”

Ram Mirchandani, vice president, UTV, is hesitant to provide the financial details of the deal. But the news is in the air that the deal amounts to about Rs two crores per film. He says, “It is too early to reveal the financial agreement between us. But all I can say is that such kind of deals are normally done with male actors. Priyanka is today one of the leading superstars and that’s why we thought of signing her for the deal. These three films will be made over a period of four years and she will be present right from the brainstorming sessions. We will discuss what kind of films to make and what genres to target. Such deals are common in Hollywood where the stars, directors and the production house sit together and then decide what films they want to make and that’s what we are trying to replicate.”
