Dusky beauty Bipasha Basu might have to pay a heavy price for pulling out of the Bachchans Unforgettables World Tour.
Reports are that Wizcraft International the event management company behind the tour is planning to sue Bipasha for breaking the contract.
Wizcraft said that Bipasha's move was not just unethical but illegal too as she cannot pull out of an event after signing the contract.
Bipasha had pulled out of the tour over the issue of remuneration. She had quoted an astronomically high figure after the success of Race to which the organisers did not agree.
Reports are that Bipasha had demanded the same amount of money (1 crore) as is being given to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan for the tour. It is believed that Bollywood mega superstar Amitabh Bachchan tried to persuade Bipasha to come back, but she stuck to her decision.
Preity Zinta has now been roped in for the tour which begins in June.
The tour will have Bachchan perform along with son Abhishek Bachchan and daughter-in-law Ash.
