Rohit Shetty: Bollywood filmmaker Rohit Shetty is known for his action-packed films. But very few people know that Rohit cares a lot about his team. During the lockdown, when his team members had run out of money, he made a film to pay salaries to 500 people.
Rohit Shetty: The COVID-19 lockdown had an impact on the entire country. People's work and business were closed for a long time. It also had a huge impact on Hindi cinema. The savings of the workers working in the industry were starting to run out. People were getting worried, seeing all this, Rohit Shetty took a big decision. The director decided to make a film in which he cast Ranveer Singh. This film was made with the aim of giving salary to 500 people. This was revealed by writer Yunus Sajawal recently.
At the end of the year 2022, Rohit Shetty released the film Circus with Ranveer Singh. Famous writer Yunus Sajawal recently spoke about Rohit Shetty to Digital Commentary. He told how caring the director is about his unit. Yunus revealed that when the lockdown continued, the release of the filmmaker's 'Sooryavanshi' had to be postponed. After this, he decided to book Mehboob Studio for September in April. Rohit Shetty called the production because he wanted to make an indoor film.
Film made to pay salaries to the film unit
If Yunus Sajawal is to be believed, Rohit Shetty made that film especially for his film unit. The writer also said that the filmmaker had told him that it would be okay if he did not work for two years. But what would happen to the people of his unit? Because no one was working, everyone was spending their saved money. Due to this, Rohit Shetty wanted to make a studio-based film so that the people of the unit could get money and their families could run properly.
