In this industry in which paying salaries to the staff s considered the most unpleasant and irregular duty of he producer, let us tell the world that during 17 years of heir crowded career as producers, the Ranjit did not miss 1 single pay day. Not one person from the staff can say hat his or her payment was delayed by even an hour. On he contrary Ranjits have advanced money to stars to pay heir gambling debts of the racecourse.
