Well, TellyChakkar.com has got its hands on a leaked audio clip which we have exclusively received wherein producer Jyoti Gupta is having a conversation with a few actors about the payments. In the audio clip, Jyoti says, “Actors ko 40% de sakte hai par technicians or baaki logon ko 30% hi dege” (We can pay 40% to the actors while we are intending to pay 30% to the technicians and crew members). In the audio clip, Jyoti along with another person can be gauged negotiating the payments with the actor citing that they faced immense loss because of the show.
Towards the end of the audio clip, Jyoti can be heard in a firm tone saying something like, “Sign kar deta toh 40% kya 10% bhi nahi deta”
Here’s the audio clip:
Ahead of receiving the audio clip, we tried to get in touch with Jyoti Gupta but couldn’t connect with him.
When contacted Zaan, he said, “I’m amazed at the web of lies that Jyoti Gupta is making. He wasn’t the line producer. Line producers never get the authority to sign cheques. He has received payment for the first 15 days from Silver Ivory Productions. I’ve been reading about the issue being solved as the channel has intervened and all but that’s not the truth. We are yet to receive an intimation on any such development. However, the matter has reached JD Majethia sir and he is quite concerned about the same”.
The audio clip suggested that Jyoti Gupta never intended to clear the payments.
We hope the cast and crew of Hamari Bahu Silk gets its much deserving remunerations as soon as possible.
Stay tuned to this space for more updates.
