Mumbai, May 30 -- Here come Safedi Lal, looking like a bright summer daisy, enthusing that he's got a tiddy-bitty on John Abraham. Claiming to have heard it from an assistant director types, my dhobi recalls the actor being a subject of ridicule by a filmmaker who recently approached him for a movie.
Wonder of wonders, the handsome hunk is believed to have quoted about R 5 crore as his remuneration. And the unimpressed director preferred to look for another actor instead. Not exactly amused, my washerman says he checked with his contacts in the other movies Johnny boy is acting in.
And wonder of wonders, he discovered that the dashing dude emphasises on keeping the production cost in control for higher recovery of investments and profits. And when John isn't gung ho about a script, he quotes high fees to put off unwanted projects. Hmmm, point noted.
