Sources claim that Kareena has hiked her fee to around Rs 3 crores after the success of Jab We Met and many filmmakers are willing to pay her asking price. Hence she now wants Shree Ashtavinayak to renegotiate their deal for Rs. 6 cores for their remaining two films. Shree Ashtavinak was shocked at her price hike and they had offered her Rs. 5 crores for the remaining two films, but Kareena refuses to settle for anything below Rs. 6 crores. Especially after Bebo found out that Katrina Kaif was offered Rs. 1.5 crores by Shree Ashtavinayak just to do an item number. Now Bebo feels that if they can pay Katrina that much for an item number, surely they can pay her what she deserves. In fact sources claim that Kareena definitely deserves the amount that she is asking, as she is now one of the top actresses. But supposedly Bebo is not pushing Ashtavinayak for more as she shares a bond with them as she has had the super hit film Jab We Met with their banner.
Kareena‘s manager Zaid refuses to give out exact figures, but says "I won’t comment on the price but what we are negotiating for is very good." But Ashtavinayak official, Parag Desai rubbishes renegotiating Kareena‘s price saying "We have signed Kareena after JWM for a three films deal, so revising the price is totally out of the question. It’s just baseless rumours doing the rounds.”
