After almost a year of anticipation and buzz, superstar Salman Khan is all set to present his Eid gift to his fans, his upcoming film, Sikandar. And if reports are to be believed, the actor has charged more than Rs 100 crore for the film, which also stars Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, and others.
According to a report in Filmibeat, Salman has charged a whopping Rs 120 crore for the highly-awaited Sikandar. It is unclear if the actor, who usually opts for the profit-sharing model, has done the same for Sikandar as well.
The actor underwent rigorous physical training and transformation for his role in the film, and shot it for months at a stretch despite the multiple threats to his life.
Rashmika, who is currently riding high on the success of her back-to-back blockbusters -- Pushpa 2 and Chhaava -- is set to play Salman's love interest in Sikandar. She took home a paycheck of Rs 5 crore for the film.
Kajal Aggarwal will also be seen sharing the screen with Salman in Sikandar, and while details about her role have been kept under wraps, she has reportedly been paid Rs 3 crore for it.
If reports are to be believed, Sharman Joshi is a part of Sikandar and has been paid Rs 75 lakh for the film. Prateik Babbar is also said to play a small but significant role, for which he took home Rs 60 lakh. South actor Sathyaraj, famously known as Katappa of Baahubali, will star in Sikandar and he charged Rs 50 lakh for the role.
Sikandar is all set to hit the silver screens on Eid this year, and it marks Salman's return to theatres in a full-fledged role after one-and-a-half years, his last film being, Tiger 3. In 2024, he played a special cameo in Varun Dhawan's Baby John.
Sikandar also marks Salman's first collaboration with Ghajini director AR Murugadoss.
