“I’ve been a part of the industry for over 10 years now. I’ve done a lot of characters and now, I’ll be playing the lead in 2 films. Many people are now badly affected because of the lockdown and the most affected people are the producers and the distributors. If they all discuss and decide on a particular salary, I’m ready to take it even if it is 20%, 50% or 70% lesser. I’m ready to take the pay-cut.”
“I feel, for many actors like me, salary has not been the major concern. I am here to act, work in a lot of movies and try to entertain the audience. That is where lies the job satisfaction”, said Mahat. Check out the full video here:
