Ronit Roy revealed! Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar gave full amount to employees during pandemic
Ronit Roy is one of the most talented actors in the industry. Starting with television, he has been a part of many web shows and television shows like Bloody Daddy, Student of the Year, Kaabil and others. Apart from acting, the actor also runs a security agency. In a recent interview, the actor revealed about paying his employees the full amount during Covid and said that megastars Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar and Karan Johar also paid their employees despite rendering no service.
In a recent interview with Lehran Retro, Ronit Roy talked about his security agency, which started during Aamir Khan’s Lagaan days in the early 2000s. He shared that today it takes care of ‘almost everyone’ in the film industry. However, his company faced tough times during the pandemic, and the actor said it went through a ‘down’.
The actor shared that a few months before the pandemic started, he did not have much work. “I had 130 people on my roster, and they also had families. We decided to pay everyone’s salary. But there’s only so much salary you can pay, and I realized there were a lot of useless things lying around at home.
He further explained that there were cars, including a Mini Cooper, that he was not using and would never drive. Thus, he sold it and other luxury items to pay the employees. “I didn’t do anyone a favor, it was my responsibility,” the actor commented.
