It’s still unclear why some section of the media always negatively portrays heroes’ remunerations. If we compare with other industries such as Hindi or Tamil, top Telugu Heros are taking quite reasonable remunerations. Excluding Pawan Kalyan, and all other star Heros are charging around 1/3 or even less as remuneration on the movie’s business or budgets.
For the last few years, Pawan Kalyan is focused on films of a smaller scale, but his remuneration is still high. Despite this disparity, this strategy of the Powerstar is working pretty well for producers too. Compared to this, top Kollywood stars are charging around or more than 50% remuneration. Even Dil Raju paid half of the budget to Vijay’s remuneration for Varasudu. This is the highest remuneration paid by Dil Raju till date. He never pays that huge remuneration to Telugu heroes and this includes Ram Charan’s for Game changer which has the potential to do 400Cr business.
Recently Allu Aravind made a statement that Heroes’ remunerations are not a reason for budget increases. Some sections of the media started writing negatively about the remuneration. In fact, there is nothing wrong with what Allu Arjun said. Tollywood star Heroes are even returning some percentage of money to producers in case of losses.
