Manju
Warrier
is
reportedly
omitted
from
Aashiq
Abu's
upcoming
movie
Rani
Padmini,
due
to
the
remuneration
issues.
Popular
Malayalam
daily
Kaumudi
reports
that
Manju
Warrier
is
charging
Rs
1
crore
per
movie;
to
the
much
distress
of
Aashiq
Abu.
According
to
the
daily,
Aashiq
Abu
is
planning
for
a
gender
change
with
the
character
which
was
offered
to
Manju
Warrier.
If
the
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
director
is
planning
to
cast
Fahadh
Faasil
will
be
playing
the
lead
role
in
the
movie,
along
with
Rima
Kallingal.
Rima
Kallingal
is
reportedly
playing
the
other
title
character
Rani
in
the
movie.
Reportedly,
the
title
of
the
movie
and
the
plot
will
be
changed
according
to
the
gender
change
of
the
central
character.
Kaumudi
reports
that
Manju
Warrier's
huge
remuneration
is
creating
issues
for
the
producers
and
filmmakers.
The
popular
banners
are
reluctant
to
spend
such
a
whopping
amount
for
the
remuneration
of
the
lead
actress,
as
Mollywood
is
an
industry
with
a
limited
market.
Earlier,
it
was
reported
that
Manju
Warrier
had
a
clash
with
Antony
Perumbavoor,
the
producer
of
her
upcoming
flick
Ennum
Eppozhum,
regarding
the
remuneration.
The
actress
was
roped
in
for
the
project,
with
the
60
percent
of
money
she
demanded.
Malayalam
movies
are
totally
depending
upon
the
satellite
and
television
rights
these
days,
due
to
the
poor
box
office
performances.
It
is
doubtlessly
difficult
for
a
small
industry
like
Mollywood,
to
afford
such
highly
paid
actors.
