It seems to be tension time yet again on the sets of Star Plus' Mann Ki Awaaz Pratigya, as few of the actors are unhappy with the budget rise they have got!! 

We hear that Ankit Gera who plays the role of Adarsh and Monika Singh who plays Pratigya's mom in the show are a bit upset as they have managed to get only a 10% rise when compared to their initial budget.

Our source tells us, "Ankit and Monika have completed their one year contract for the show, and as per the procedure, the production house was to give them a decent increase in their salary. However, the actors are unhappy with the rise they have got, and are in talks with the production house for a better hike. The situation is dicey as of now, and both Monika and Ankit might decide to leave the show if they are not given a satisfactory increment".

When contacted, Ankit Gera told us, "I cannot comment on anything now; let's sort things out first".

However, Monika refused the buzz, and said, "It's not true. Nothing as such has happened".

We tried calling Producer Pearl Grey but she remained unavailable.

We too hope that's things fall in place the the Pratigya family remains united!!
