Read to know why Sajid Nadiadwala actually chose Kiara Advani over Shraddha Kapoor for his next mega project

Shraddha Kapoor worked with Sajid Nadiadwala in the film Baaghi 3, however, Sajid’s decision to replace her with Kiara Advani in his next has left all the netizens in shock, for they wondered what could possibly have gone wrong between the two. Kiara Advani will be back with Kartik Aryan in Sameer Vidwan’s upcoming film after Bhool Bhulaiya 2, however, earlier it was said that Shraddha Kapoor will be paired with Aryan, but later got replaced.

A source close to Bollywood Hungama, revealed, “Sajid was very keen on getting Shraddha alongside Kartik in the film, as that would have resulted in a fresh pairing. However, he was taken aback and shocked when Shraddha Kapoor quoted Rs. 10 crores to be a part of the film. While the producer usually never negotiates with his actors, he was surprised with Shraddha’s acting fees as she had last worked with Sajid recently on Baaghi 3 for a nominal sum of Rs 4 crore,”

However, Sajid gave Shraddha a final offer of Rs 7.5 crores, but the actress stood by 10 crores. On this, the source added, “Sajid gave a final offer of Rs. 7.5 crores to Shraddha Kapoor, however, the actress and her team remained adamant on the double-digit remuneration. Sajid eventually decided to move on and sign Kiara Advani, who is currently on a high, for the film. The actress has been signed for an approximate sum of Rs. 3.5 crores,”, it further added, “He is happy with Kiara Advani and has signed her for a premium amount, that’s slightly more than her market value. Kiara usually charges anywhere between Rs. 2 to 2.5 crores for a project,”
