There is always a difference between the fees between the two sexes in Bollywood. Kareena Kapoor today charges approximately 2 crores per project. While Aamir Khan demands Rs 7 crore for a movie, Aishwarya Rai manages just Rs 2.5 crore per project. Rekha, Madhuri Dixit or Sridevi used to command a high price and because of the packaging, producers used to pay them hefty fees. Today, Rani Mukherjee and Preity Zinta demand high fees because of their draw at the box office. Even in Hollywood too, very few actresses like Julia Roberts and Angelina Jolie demand a fee equivalent to that of the hero.

The producer director Ruchi Nansa says “It is not because of the sexes that a hero is paid more and a heroine is paid less. Both are actors and who can pull in more crowds/audience is what counts when one does a research regarding the economics of a film.’’
