The model-turned-actress revealed that she is prepared to take a pay cut to act in socially relevant projects.
"That's the only way they can work. I will reduce my price for similar films," Basu commented.
Despite the poor box office performance of her last realistic film, the star will follow up Lamhaa with similar project Aakrosh.
"If Lamhaa had been made for the price of an Udaan or a Tere Bin Laden, it would have been a hit," she said.
Basu has agreed to establish an NGO for Kashmiri orphans with Lamhaa co-star Sanjay Dutt and director Rahul Dholakia.
