During the MAMI Movie Mela 2019, Karan Johar discussed with Kareena Kapoor Khan about pay parity and she is indeed the right person to talk about it.
Enquire Kareena if she ever walked out of a movie due to payment issues, she revealed there might have been different reasons for doing that, but not because of getting paid less. She further added, but, that she would love to get paid as much as her male co-stars though. Karan then questioned her if she is getting paid as much as Akshay Kumar, as the two are co-starring in Good Newwz next, and she told him that he could pay her as much as he paid Akshay and she will run out of MAMI.
On this, Karan Johar told, "Many times, people make sweeping statements about it. I’m the first person who’ll always want to pay what is completely right and justified and valid. I’ve always done it. But I feel there’s a larger understanding of the budget versus the verticals that you sell on digital and satellite that are driven by different data. So, it’s very subjective and cannot be just put into one strong slot. While I’m all about equality, when it comes to love and paying people, but there are larger optics to look at where we have to.”
