It"s
just
three
days
left
for
Indian
Idol
season
5
to
hit
airwaves
and
it
seems
a
furor
regarding
financial
issues
has
cropped
up
amongst
the
jury.
It"s
well
known
that
this
season
of
Sony"s
musical
reality
show
has
Anu
Malik,
Sunidhi
Chauhan
and
Salim
Merchant
on
its
jury
panel.
Apparently
a
cold
war
has
transpired
between
the
channel
and
Anu
regarding
the
injustice
of
payment
shelled
about
to
him
and
Sunidhi.
Anu
has,
in
fact,
warned
the
channel
to
take
a
call
immediately
or
else
he
can
also
quit
the
show.
According
to
a
tabloid
report,
Anu
is
being
paid
less
than
Sunidhi.
The
latter
is
reportedly
getting
a
remuneration
of
almost
Rs.7.5
lakhs
per
episode,
Anu
gets
only
Rs.
5
lakhs
per
episode.
This
vast
difference
had
annoyed
Anu
so
much
that
he
is
not
co-operating
with
the
producer
now.
Danish
Khan,
vice
president
and
marketing
head,
Sony
Entertainment
Television
reportedly
admitted
that
they
are
having
issues
with
Anu
Malik
but
they
are
confident
of
sorting
it
out.
