Usually, the heroes who have some recognition will not accept the films instantly. They will sign the film only after thoroughly scanning the details. Even if they say 'yes', they will not accept the advance so easily.
Several heroes don't take the remuneration until the film reaches the final stages even though producers ask them. But a young hero is acting completely different as per the filmy folks.
A producer who bankrolled a film with a big star hero recently approached this young hero for a film. The young hero didn't waste second to ask 'Will you send advance?' rather than asking for the director and story!
Similarly, another producer who scored a hit wanted to make a film with this hero. He has reportedly sent a director to narrate the story. The hero repeated the same question 'Will you send advance?'
The hero already has some films in his kitty. So, the producers are reportedly discussing in their internal talks that how can they give him crores of advance in these corona times unless they clearly know when the hero will do their film? What is their number in his lineup of movies?
