Rani gives and doesn’t get
Posted on June 18th, 2008 by tigger under Karan Johar, Rani Mukherji, Shah Rukh KhanRani Mukherjee has still hasn’t decided what she’s going to do with the money she and Karan Johar won in ‘Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass se Tez Hain’ with Shah Rukh Khan. The last time she won money from Shah Rukh was on ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ and she donated that 25 lakhs to build an ICU to the Holy Family Hospital In Mumbai and she’ll be inaugurating the finally completed unit today.
Nestle seem to piling on the insults however as they have not renewed their contract to have Rani as a brand ambassador, an official says,
“Our contract with Rani Mukherjee was due to get over and we were in the midst of planning new marketing strategies for our brand. It is then that we decided that we won’t be renewing our contract with her,”
“Our new strategies include targeting the youth and Rani ceases to be any kind of a youth icon anymore. Her films haven’t really worked out at the box office and we are looking out for someone who is very popular in this category. We are working out on a few options and a final announcement shall be made very soon.”
Fanta has also dropped Rani from their campaigns recently…this probably makes people quite bitter as one of her friends announced,
“Rani is extremely disappointed by Nestle’s unprofessionalism. They knew well that once the contract came up for renewal, Rani would increase her price. They wanted to go in for someone cheaper perhaps. They should be thankful that Rani has got their product noticed in last four years.”
While I like Rani, but this just sounds like sour grapes. Also, since the chocolate only sells for 5 rupees, I see why Nestle might wanna cut some costs.
