I always had this feeling, just like in bollywood where khans churn out 200-300 crore films. who the * pays 7 crore for dinesh karthik?

Owning an IPL team is a separate business from the owners' personal careers. You buy an IPL team, you earn revenues, you have expenses including salaries, and if you are lucky you break even. KKR is one of the few teams that actually makes profits.

Why isn't Narendra "na khaunga, na khane dunga" Modi doing anything about the khans? BTW Baahubali 2 made over 1000 cr gross in India alone, so the potential of the market it still way more than what khan movies make.

maybe he doesn't rank it as a priority...how would i know? baahubali is an anomaly..you have the khans consistently delivering 200-300 crores films for years now while the rest of the actors struggle to cross 100 crores. i believe there is more to it than meets the eye, but again its just an assumption.

 

btw unadkat sold for 11.5 crores :phehe:

That's not true. I have been tracking movie collections as a hobby for a long time and it's one of the hardest business to launder money, simply because how decentralized it is. Khans don't even distribute their movies themselves. The producers (except YRF who are distributors themselves) usually sell their movies to distributors with a minimum guarantee and the portion of the theatrical collections go to the distributors. It's impossible to do large scale laundering. And no, not every Khan movie makes 200-300 crores. Case in point, SRK's movies in the last few years, Salman's Tubelight last year or even Aamir's Secret Superstar recently. Rest of the actors are not as popular as Khans, that's a fact. India is a hero driven market unfortunately.

Can somebody explain what good is Manish Pandey for apart from this pyjama league ? I saw him play for India and I genuinely didn’t he was second division player in any decent cricketing structure. He he is valued 12 Cr. 

He plays match winning knocks in IPL that is enough
