Insiders claim that the actor typically charges ₹100 crore for a movie, but he is currently anticipated to charge ₹150 crore. The insider continues, “In fact, down in the south region, giving such a sum to an actor is becoming common. An actor’s fee is a major and significant part of the film’s allotted budget.”
There are many rumors that Pushpa 2: The Rule, produced for ₹500 crore, has its theatrical rights sold for ₹200 crore in North India and its digital rights sold for ₹250 crore. The actor isn’t rushing to capitalize on the thrills, though.
