Ashok Kumar was hired by Bombay Talkies for Rs. 75 p.m. Gradually it was raised to Rs. 150 and then to Rs. 250 p.m. When he received Rs. 250 for the first time, he was so excited he could not sleep at night for fear that someone might rob him. He hid the money under his bedding and next morning deposited it in a post office. The same Ashok Kumar was getting Rs. 100, 000 for a single movie by mid-1940's (excerpts from an article in Ganje Farishte (Bald Angels) by Saadat Hassan Manto.)
