Rs 125 Cr For Atlee? Why So Much Money?
As per the latest developments, Allu Arjun and Atlee are being paid a lump sum amount of money for this project.
By: Tupaki Desk | 10 April 2025 10:10 AMIt is already known that Allu Arjun is going to work with talented Tamil director Atlee for his upcoming project, which was officially announced on April 8 on the occasion of Allu Arjun’s birthday. There are several debates about this project now, and here is one such story that is development.
As per the latest developments, Allu Arjun and Atlee are being paid a lump sum amount of money for this project. Apparently, Allu Arjun is being paid ₹175 crore for the film while Atlee is being paid Rs 125 crore.
The cumulative remuneration that are being paid for the Hero and Director are totalling to ₹250 crores. The makers are reportedly spending a huge amount of money on the terms of the lead hero and director itself.
However, this is again, bringing us back to the question on whether the Director deserves such a huge paycheck, considering the kind of filmography that he had put up in the past.
It is a fact that Atlee is a proven commercial director. He has the track record of making successful films in the past, but this does not necessarily mean that he commands a check as big as Rs 125 crore. This is the opinion that is being expressed by the wider section of the audience on social media.
Atlee is one of the talented directors nevertheless but this doesn’t necessarily validate the Rs 125 crore paycheck that is in discussion for the film. There are a lot of things that are going against this film now in terms of the massive remunerations that are in place.
The responsibility is now on the young Tamil director to complete this project within strict production, timeline and budget in order to validate the massive amount he is receiving as remuneration.
