Sonia Agarwal shocks producer

Actress Sonia Agarwal was recently in news for seeking divorce from her director husband Selvaraghavan. She is reported to have shocked a producer by asking Rs 60 Lakhs as remuneration to work in a remake of yesteryears Tamil super hit Manmathaleelai (originally directed by K. Balachander with Kamal Haasan in the lead role).


Sources say that Sonia is now making attempts for a comeback in cinema and doesn’t have too many films in her kitty. So the producers apparently thought it would be easy to get bulk shooting dates from her. Aware that her role would be ultra glamorous, Sonia agreed to do the film, but shocked the producer when she quoted Rs. 60 lakhs as her fee, added the source. Now the producer is reportedly looking for a suitable actress from Kerala.
