The entire country was under lockdown since March 24 and every sector including the entertainment industry also stalled their projects due to the Coronavirus scare. Many actors are yet to get their dues as producers are not paying them owing to the lockdown. Many celebs have also raised their voice and requested the producers to give the remaining payments.

Hina Khan has also slammed the producers for not giving remuneration to the actors amid the crisis. In an interview with Pinkvilla, Hina said, “This is absolutely bizarre that such things are happening. I know there is this one show where the cast and crew are reaching out for help, it is so sad. The producers should at least give them half the payment, I understand that even they are in crisis but then they were the ones to take the risk, we are not the risk-takers. For me, a producer has found me, it is their duty to deliver the remuneration they have signed me for and it is my duty to deliver in my performance and the working hours. If I have delivered my part, they need to deliver their part.”

She further said, “If tomorrow that show would have been doing extremely well, it is not like they would have given the share of profits with actors, then how can they expect them to wait for this long? I understand the crisis.” Hina also said that when someone takes a risk of becoming a producer, he has to keep an amount separately in case things don’t work out.

“Why can’t they calculate their risk? Turning a producer is a huge responsibility and they need to pay their dues,” she added.
