When it comes to Bollywood actors, the young and ignorant generation think that their lifestyle will be luxurious and luxurious. In a way their assumption is correct, yet many of the top artists have faced serious financial hardships and they were mired in debt.
Rajakpur
Late. Twice in Rajakpur's life there was an economic crisis. However, he had the help of his family. The first time they happened was during the shooting of the film Awara. He made a magnificent set on the song Ghar Aaya Mera Pardesi from the film at that time and smoked Rs 8 lakh. Then came the situation that they had no money left to shoot. When they were in financial trouble, Nargis helped Raj Kapoor by selling her jewelery.
The second time he was devastated when he made his shaman's big budget film Mera Naam Joker. The film was not well received by the audience and was slammed at the box office. However, it is different that after 10 years, the film was released for the second time and he made a lot of money in the Soviet Union. His dream did not work out. As well as his Kal Aaj Or Kal also failed. His money was also sunk in this film.
To get out of this miserable condition, Raj Kapoor launched his son Rishi and made a Bobby film in which he made a lot of money.
Prana
Before independence, there were two film industries, one in Lahore and the other in Mumbai. In those days, Pran's name was revered among the top artists in Lahore. But the divided Prana left his house and land and came to Indore with his relatives. From there he came to Mumbai and initially stayed in a fivestar hotel.
He was accompanied by his wife, children and a maid. Money was running out and I couldn't find work in the movies. So they moved into a three star hotel and then into a guest house.
Lahore's top star was getting poorer. Eventually they moved to a hospice. But they were not ready to go back to Pakistan. After many struggles, he got the film Jiddi with the help of actor Shyam. The fortunes of Pran, Dev Anand and Kamini Koshal unfolded with the success of this film. In the week following the release of this film, Pran got three films. And his career was cut short.
Amitabh Bachchan
Amitabh Bachchan soon realized that he had done wrong by getting involved in politics. After this he resigned and became active in Bollywood again. And in his second year, he filmed Shahenshah and got in the car. After this he did films like Tufan, Hum, Khuda Gawah and Agneepath. The success of all these films was again emptied of their coffers by one wrong decision.
It so happened that they started a production company with Jaya under which Abhimaan made a film. But later the company did not run. After this she formed the ABCL company in the 19th under which she made films but the films made in them also failed. Besides, she also organized the Miss World pageant in Bangalore under this company and all the money of Amitabh went to the event flop. The Big B lost millions at the time. Bachchan had to mortgage the bungalow. The High Court had banned the sale of their bungalows and flats.
At that time, Subrato Rai and Amar Singh came forward to help him. He was given a show like Kaun Banega Crore Pati through which he started earning money again and gradually paid off all his debts. After this bad experience they do not dare to venture into any business. He invests his money in valuable stocks. As well as earning money by acting, advertising and KBC.
Cinematographer Irani
Cinematographer Nariman Irani, who is known for photographing films like Cheela Babu, Roti Kapda Or Makan and Saraswati Chandra, has also faced a miserable situation. Amitabh Bachchan, Pran and Zeenat Aman were in that situation. The Iranians joined the trio in the film Dawn. His financial situation at that time was so bad that he was ready to film only with a token amount. Meanwhile, during the shooting of Manoj Kumar's film Kranti, a wall suddenly fell on him and he died suddenly. The actors of both the films worked to help their families without taking a single rupee.
