Priyanka Chopra loses Sanjay Gadhvi’s film after demanding a Rs 5 crore paycheque

Is Priyanka Chopra getting too big for her boots? According to reports, when approached by Sanjay Gadhvi for 7 Days In Paris, co-starring Imran Khan, she demanded Rs. 5 crore. Gadhvi and the producer, who were already reeling under the shock of Katrina's obvious disapproval of the script, were flabbergasted. Consequently, Priyanka lost out on the film.

A source said, “The producers were shocked when Priyanka asked for such a huge fee. They tried to reason with her but she refused to relent.”

Maybe Priyanka was trying her luck after she got Rs. 3 crore from Yash Raj Films to star opposite Uday Chopra in Pyaar Impossible. “This time, she was not so lucky. The producers would rather wait and sign someone else rather than pay such a huge sum,” the source added.

While Priyanka’s official spokesperson said, “Priyanka has not been offered Gadhvi’s film,” our source insisted that Priyanka was approached for the role and she asked for much moolah.

Priyanka Chopra and Sanjay Gadhvi did not reply to our text messages.

As things stand today, Katrina might agree to do the film as the script is being reworked. The source added, “Katrina will take the final call only after the script is fully ready.”

In case things don’t work out with Katrina, Gadhvi is also in advanced talks with Genelia D’Souza and Asin. The film is scheduled to go on the floors early next month.
