However, after the massive success, Trisha hiked her fees to Rs 3 crore per film before making it Rs 5 crore for Leo. Reports are also rife that Trisha will be charging a massive Rs 10 crore for her next film. Now that’s what we call success!
Trisha is also the highest-paid South actress, according to a report by News18. The Yennai Arindhaal actress owns two luxurious homes, one in Chennai and one in Hyderabad.
