Actor Yashpal Sharma has recalled the time when he used to earn just Rs 18 per day. Sharma, who has made his mark over the years with performances in films such as "Lagaan", "Gangaajal", "Ab Tak Chhappan" and "Apaharan", recalled his days in Hisar in the nineties, when he used to work as a typist.

"My wages were a meagre Rs 18 per day. One day a contractor gave me Rs 300. I was stunned to see the offer as Rs 300 was a huge amount back then. I refused to accept it, but he insisted me to keep the money. When I narrated this incident to my elder brother and father, they started laughing. They told me he must have got a huge contract," Yashpal told IANS.
