Vicky Kaushalโs latest epic, Chhaava, remains an unstoppable force, showcasing impressive stability at the box office.
The film raked in nearly โน20 crore on its second Tuesday (Day 12), even managing a slight increase compared to Mondayโs earnings.
If the upward trend continues, Chhaava will cross the โน400 crore milestone by Thursday (Day 14), further cementing its blockbuster status.
Chhaava actorsโ fees revealed in this article, discover how much the lead actors were paid for this epic blockbuster!
Vicky Kaushalโs Massive Payday
Leading the charge, Vicky Kaushal, who portrays Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, reportedly earned a hefty โน10 crore, which accounts for nearly seven percent of the filmโs total budget.
This paycheck matches his fee for Bad Newz but is slightly lower than the โน12 crore he received for URI: The Surgical Strike.
His commanding screen presence and powerful performance have been widely praised, making his paycheck well-earned.
Rashmika Mandannaโs Remuneration
Playing the role of Maharani Yesubai Bhonsale, Rashmika Mandanna was reportedly paid โน4 crore.
While her presence adds a layer of emotional depth to the story, critics have noted that she struggled with the language and accent, which slightly impacted her portrayal.
Akshaye Khannaโs Surprising Salary
One of the biggest surprises has been Akshaye Khannaโs paycheck.
Taking on the formidable role of Aurangzeb, the seasoned actor was reportedly paid just โน2.5 crore, making his fee five times lower than Vickyโs.
This is an increase from his โน2 crore salary for Drishyam 2, but many believe his intense and gripping performance in Chhaava warranted a higher paycheck.
Supporting Cast Earnings
The film also boasts a stellar supporting cast, each with varying paychecks:
- Ashutosh Rana, portraying Hambirrao Mohite, reportedly earned โน80 lakh.
- Divya Dutta, who played Rajmata Soyarabai Bhosale, received โน45 lakh.
- Diana Penty, in a smaller role, had the least impact but was still part of the ensemble.
