Recent reports reveal that Allu Arjun, the star of Pushpa, has become the highest-paid actor in India, surpassing major stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Thalapathy Vijay, and Prabhas. His remuneration is now said to exceed the total box office earnings of several blockbuster films.
According to Track Tollywood, Allu Arjun has charged an astounding ₹300 crore for his role in Pushpa 2: The Rule. This incredible fee not only surpasses the box office collections of many hit films but also makes him the highest-paid actor in the country, overtaking the paychecks of other top stars.
Allu Arjun’s fame skyrocketed after the massive success of Pushpa in 2021, which performed exceptionally well at the box office despite the challenges posed by the pandemic.
The excitement around the highly anticipated sequel, Pushpa 2: The Rule, is palpable, with fans eagerly awaiting its release later this year, following the triumph of the first film.
Before Allu Arjun’s record-breaking fee, Thalapathy Vijay was reportedly the highest-paid actor in India, with a ₹200 crore paycheck for his upcoming film G.O.A.T., where he plays dual roles.
