Bhagyashree was paid 5 times more than Salman Khan for Maine Pyar Kiya, her fees was Rs…, Salman Khan got only Rs.. Back in 1989, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan made a remarkable debut in Sooraj Barjatya's Maine Pyaar Kiya. The actor who headlined the romantic drama, was apparently not the highest-paid member of the cast. In fact, his fees was less than his co-star Bhagyashree. Well, actress Parvien Dastur, who portrayed the role of Seema in the film, made this interesting revelation. In a conversation with Bollywood Thikana, Parvien revealed, 'I was paid Rs 25,000 and Bhagyashree was the highest paid at that time. She got Rs 1,50,000 and we were all like 'wow'.' She further added, 'Having said that, the production house of Rajshri never gave a lot of money to actors but our cheques always came to our house. We never had to ask for our money. They would never cheat you of your money. There are people in the industry who do not pay and I have worked with people where I was not paid.' Salman Khan was initially paid Rs 31,000 for his role in Maine Pyar Kiya. However, his renumeration later increased to Rs 75000. The actor once told PTI, 'My first salary was, I think, about Rs 75. I was dancing behind in some show in Taj hotel. One of my friends was dancing there so he took me (and I did it) just for fun. Then it went up to Rs 750 for Campa Cola and then it was Rs 1,500 for the longest time. Then I got paid Rs 31,000 for Maine Pyar Kiya, which was then increased to Rs 75,000 later.' Maine Pyaar Kiya released in 1989 and also starred Reema Lagoo, Mohnish Bahl and Alok Nath among others. Helmed by Sooraj Barjatya, the film was the highest-grosser of the year and became career-altering project for many involved. While Khan became a star following Maine Pyaar Kiya's success, Bhagyashree chose to step away from the film industry and got married.

EXCLUSIVE: Aamir Khan to release of Sitaare Zameen Par on 1200 screens; Set for a platform release
Over the years, Aamir Khan has come up with the most unique ideas to release his feature films on the big screen. Come June 20, and the actor is all set to introduce another innovation. According to sources close to the development, Aamir Khan along with his national distribution PVRInox are all set to give a platform release to Sitaare Zameen Par, with the idea to increase the show on a real-time basis through the day of release, leading to the opening weekend. According to reliable sources, Sitaare Zameen Par will see an all-India release on about 1000 to 1500 screens on the opening day. 'The makers were exploring several release ideas, and the plan at the moment is to bring the film on approx. 1250 screens. Aamir Khan is confident of the film, and is well aware about the change in audience dynamics, which is the reason why he is looking at a longer game than a shorter one,' revealed a source close to the development. The source further informed that Aamir is confident to evoke a collective emotion among the cine-goers, in a packed auditorium. 'The release will be more concentrated towards the high-performing cinema halls in the respective areas, before slowly transitioning to the mass belts on demand. Given that the film isn't arriving on any OTT platform, Aamir and the team have enough time to adopt the strategy based on word of mouth,' the source added. Sitaare Zameen Par is scheduled to release only on the big screen on June 20, and Aamir is looking to aggressively promote the film post the release too, as he believes that the film has the legs to perform well at the box office in the long run. 'Internationally too, it's a strategic release, though the exact plans would be known closer to the release,' the source concluded. Interestingly, the platform release strategy has been used by Rajshri and YRF in the past on films like Hum Aapke Hai Kaun, Dum Laga Ke Haisha, and Uunchai among others.
