Indian celebrities in the film industry get media attention more often than not. Like when they act in a movie and when it becomes a blockbuster hit at the box office, they hit the headlines for all the right reasons. The stars across all the cities have scores of supporters not just in India but elsewhere too.
They do get paid handsomely for each movie and they are known to lead a luxurious life. Besides earning in the grand stage, they also get tonnes of bonuses to earn money in the form of advertisements or endorsing brands.
However, there are some celebrities who don’t want to set a wrong example as they have turned down lucrative deals. They could have easily added more money to their wallets but they chose to remain simple and they became an inspiration amongst the masses.

Usually, actresses would be looking forward to cashing in on to these types of deals so as to become rich but Sai Pallavi politely turned down the huge fairness cream brand that approached her for a commercial.
