Vikrant Massey told a publication that he earns less than most of his female co-stars, mentioning Deepika Padukone as an example. “Bahar ke jo so-called ‘A-listers’ he woh bhi platforms pe films kar rahe he. Humare ‘so-called A-listers’ he yaha ke, superstars he, pichle 15-20 saalon se TV pe kaam kar rahe he.” Massey continued, “Most of my female co-stars have been paid more than me, I have never made a fuss about it.
