After the success of Paa and Ishqiya, the actress hiked her price to that of other top actresses - which is rumoured to be around Rs 1.5 crore. That's the asking price for Kareena and Katrina too.
However, the makers of Dhamaal 2 refused to meet Vidya's asking price or reach for a compromise and instead let her exit the project.
However, those close to Vidya insist that the actress opted out of Dhamaal 2 not because of monetary reasons but because she was unhappy with the way her character has been developed.
