Actor Prithviraj Sukumaran who is gearing up for the release of his films 'The Goat Life' (Aadujeevitham) and 'Bade Miyan Chote Miyan' revealed that he prefers taking a share in profits of the projects he works on rather than remuneration.
In an interview with Gulte, he said, “I don’t do films for a salary. I say no, let’s make the film the best possible way. I am taking responsibility and holding myself accountable. If one of my films doesn’t make a profit, I don’t get any money. But if it makes profits, I get more than what my salary would’ve been. It helps because if a producer has money, he’s spending it to make the film. Someone like Akshay Kumar sir also works this way. When I produced a film with him (Selfiee), he said no salary."
