In the world of cinema, there’s a lot of discussion around movies, actors, profits and the like. However, there is not much talk about the female leads. There is special interest in an actor’s remuneration per movie considering he does fights, songs and acts. Whatever be the case, actors who have high demand in the industry get the highest remuneration. However, once they lose their market, they can hardly demand anything.
We have heard of first time actors creating a sensation in the very first movie and going on to double their remuneration in the second movie itself because of the demand.
Today, let’s talk about which actress gets paid how much and who’s the highest paid among heroines in the south Indian film industry. As per a list leaked by a film portal, here’s how much each actress gets paid by the filmmakers.
Nayanthara, who’s known as the lady super star in Kollywood gets a whopping 4 crores per movie, it is learnt. The second on list is none other than Kollywood actress and newly wed bride Kajal Aggarwal who charges Rs 2 crores per movie. On the other hand, Tamannaah Bhatia and Trisha Krishnan are paid Rs 1.5 crore each.
