pause the doom-scrolling because the tea is piping hot! Dhurandhar finally dropped in theatres today (Dec 5), and the internet is absolutely shook by the scale. We knew Aditya Dhar was cooking something massive, but the bank balance on this cast? Main Character Energy to the max. We’re talking crores on crores. Let’s dive into who secured the biggest bag!
Who Got Paid What?
Ranveer Singh: Secured the Bag (and How!)
Okay, we need to talk about Ranveer. Our man isn’t just playing "The Wrath of God"—he’s charging like a god too. He reportedly took home a massive Rs 30-50 Crore.
The Tea: This is a major jump from his Rocky Aur Rani days (which was around Rs 25Cr). Considering he’s carrying this spy universe on his shoulders, the paycheck makes sense. He’s in his serious era, and the bank account agrees.
The OGs: Madhavan & Sanju Baba
The supporting cast is literally the Avengers of Bollywood, and they were paid accordingly.
R Madhavan (Rs 9 Crore): Maddy is playing the brainy Chief of Intelligence (giving major Ajit Doval vibes), and honestly, he deserves every rupee. He’s been rent-free in our heads since Rocketry, and this role is just chef's kiss.
Sanjay Dutt (Rs 8-10 Crore): Sanju Baba is back in his intense mode as a Pakistani cop. With the KGF 2 hype still alive, his screen presence alone is worth the 10Cr price tag.
The Villain Era: Akshaye Khanna & Arjun Rampal
Akshaye Khanna (Rs 2.5-3 Crore): He’s playing a crime lord (Rehman Dakait), and let's be real Akshaye as a baddie is a whole mood. His viral dialogues are already trending, so this investment? Solid.
Arjun Rampal (Rs 1 Crore): He’s playing an ISI officer, looking scary good. For 1Cr, he’s bringing that menacing "I will destroy you" energy that we love to hate.
The Gen-Z Queen: Sara Arjun
Sara Arjun (Rs 1 Crore): From child actor to leading lady opposite Ranveer! She beat 1,300 people in auditions to get this role. Securing 1Cr at 20 years old? We Stan a successful queen.
