Ajith’s last film Valimai was a massive success in Tamil Nadu and completed his hat-trick hits. Valimai, along with Nerkonda Parvai and Viswasam have now further cemented ‘Thala’ as one of the biggest crowd-pullers in Tamil Nadu. This is why, for his upcoming film with Lyca Productions, he is being offered a record remuneration.
Ajith has already signed this project to be directed by Vignesh Shivan and as per reports, he is being paid a whopping Rs 100 crores. While many eyebrows are being raised at this deal, his form at the box office and craze for his films on TV and OTT makes this deal reasonable.
Valimai is the best example of Ajith’s stardom and hold on the masses. The film received mixed talk but recorded massive openings at the box office. The action entertainer even crossed Rs.30 crs share worldwide on its opening day.
While Valimai witnessed drops during weekdays, it picked up in the second weekend with repeat views from families. Star power of Ajith pulled this average film well enough making 150 cr gross worldwide after the third weekend. Valimai grossed more than 100 crores in Tamil Nadu alone highlighting his star power yet again.
