The ongoing payment dispute surrounding Bade Miyan Chote Miyan has caught significant attention after crew members, including director Ali Abbas Zafar, accused Pooja Entertainment of non-payment of dues.
Ronit Roy, who was part of the cast, has also shared his experience, revealing that while he eventually received a large part of his acting fees, it only happened after the intervention of Himanshu Mehra, a collaborator of Zafar.
Ronit Roy said in an interview, “I am lucky to have got a large part of my acting fees for my work on Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. The money was supposed to come from Vashu Bhagnani, and it did, but only after Himanshu Mehra intervened.” He further added that the payments for his staff and security team, responsible for guarding the sets in Mumbai, were also significantly delayed and only cleared thanks to Mehra’s efforts.
Expressing his disappointment with Pooja Entertainment, Ronit described the experience as “painful” and stated that he would not work with the production house again.
