Puri Jagannath pockets 17cr for Rogue?

It sounds unbelievable but true. Ace director Puri Jagannath has reportedly pocketed a remuneration of Rs 17 crore for his last release `Rogue’ but the film didn’t recover his payment, rather turned out to be one of the biggest flops in his career.
Briefly, Kannnada film producer C R Manohar wanted to introduce his kin and debutant Ishaan in T-town and approached Puri Jagannath and the latter promised a dream launch but all plans went awry as the lacklustre movie sank without a trace. “Producer C R Manohar wanted to launch his kin in Telugu but it ended in a disaster.
Apart from losing Rs 22 crore, even Ishaan went unnoticed,’ says a source. However, a source close to the director says that `remuneration was just part of the package since they hired actors from Puri Connects and other logistic support so it’s not just pay cheque alone,’ he concludes.
