Prabhas is undoubtedly the amplest superstar in Tollywood. However, after his film Bahubali got a pan-Indian release, it’s unneeded to say that how the actor has made it great all over the country, with his stunning hot looks and performances. However, of late reports on the front with his upcoming film Adipurush where he is set to star alongside Kriti Sanon and the budget for the film.
Bhushan Kumar, talking to Pink Villa, said, “Adipurush is made on a budget of Rs 500 crore. For that film, we know that the opening will be giant with a houseful board across. So, we will try to optimise the demand for the film by going ahead with blockbuster pricing. We know people will come to see it irrespective of pricing as it is a one-off it’s kind event cinema and there is only limited capacity. So, we would make sure, to go all out with this film.”
“Bhushan Kumar is amongst the biggest producers of Bollywood today and he is looking to make the biggest of the films in the post-pandemic world. And hence, he is teaming up not only with a Bollywood actor, but someone who has the widest possible reach pan India – Prabhas. His presence gives Bhushan and his team the liberty to make films without being bothered much about the budgets. He is supremely excited to take things to the next level with Radhe Shyam, Adipurush and Spirit.”
It further stated, “Working with Prabhas is a matter of prestige today given his unparalleled stardom. The actor has reportedly charged Rs. 150 crores flat to be a part of Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit, and with this, he has emerged as the highest-paid actor in India today. He got Rs. 150 crores for Adipurush as well. He is the third actor in the last 10 years to be paid upwards of Rs. 100 crores after Salman Khan (who got Rs. 100 crores plus for Sultan and Tiger Zinda Hai) and Akshay Kumar (who started charging Rs. 100 crores from Bell Bottom).” As stated in Koi Moi.
