Johar did Bombay Velvet for free

Filmmaker Karan Johar will be seen on the big screen again and the makers of Bombay Velvet say that he didn’t accept a single paisa as an actor’s fee for his negative role in the film.

As a token of appreciation, co-producer Phantom Films (Anurag Kashyap and Vikas Bahl) has sent a giant Rs.11 cheque as a symbol of friendship between them and Karan.

‘Yes, he has not taken any remuneration, because this film is his 'passion project'. I think the full team will always be indebted to him,’ Bahl said in a statement. 

The romantic thriller is set to release 28 Nov.
