Actor Rakesh Bedi has dismissed rumours claiming he received a Rs 1 crore bonus after the success of Dhurandhar 2. The actor, whose performance as politician Jameel Jamali has drawn attention from audiences, reacted to the reports with humour and said no such amount had reached his account.
As reported by NDTV, Rakesh addressed the speculation and said, "Kayi log mujhe ye bata rahe hain ki mujhe production house se Dhurandhar ke baad Rs 1 crore mila hai. Toh bhaiya woh kahan pada hai, kiske ghar mein rakha hai, kiski jeb mein hai, mujhe bata do yaar kahan kisi ne gaad ke rakha hai. Bata do taaki main jaake le loon kyunki mere account mein toh abhi tak nahin aaya hai.
Translation: "There are reports that I have received Rs 1 crore from the production house after Dhurandhar's success. Please tell me where is that money? Who has it? Who has pocketed it? Please tell me who has buried it where so that I can go and get it because it's not in my account yet."
He further said that no such amount was reflecting in his account. Rakesh added that if the money ever gets credited, he may or may not publicly acknowledge it, but as of now, he has not received anything.
The actor jokingly added that if anyone could help him get the money, they should let him know.
