Both brothers of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, Arbaaz and Sohail are also film producers. The common belief is that when Salman works in domestic films, he charges less than other production houses, but this is not at all the case.
Salman's brother actor-producer Arbaaz Khan said the Dabangg star charges more for domestic films. Arbaaz told what benefit Salman gets by doing this and how his two brothers help in increasing his market fees.
How does Salman get more fees for domestic films?
In an interview, Arbaaz explained the calculation of Salman's fees in detail. He also said that what is the use of such professionalism on the set.
Arbaaz said that he pays Salman as per his normal market value in his films but sometimes it is more than that. This helps Salman in increasing the fees of his new projects. “When he works with us, we decide to pay him as per his prevailing market rate,” Arbaaz said. Every time we have given him the highest fees for his films.
Arbaaz gave the example of 'Dabangg' franchise and how they paid Salman more than his market rate and it set a new standard for his upcoming films. Arbaaz said that he makes sure that Salman gets the same respect as a superstar in his films.
His brothers respect Salman as much as any professional actor.
He insists on not taking advantage of his family ties with Salman so that Salman is not forced to do extra work or reach the set early because of his brother. He said that on the set he treats Salman not like his brother but like a professional actor.
