Salaar is one of the most-awaited movies of 2023. Prashanth Neel, famous for helming the KGF film series, has penned and directed the movie. The director invested years in writing and filming the movie, which has created quite a buzz among cinephiles. Prabhas, Prithviraj Sukumaran, and Shruti Haasan are playing the lead roles in the upcoming film set to hit the theatres on December 22. Salaar’s cast also includes many acclaimed actors in supporting roles.

Much like the KGF film series, Prabhas’ Salaar is also made on a hefty budget. The makers left no stone unturned in creating this magnum opus. For instance, they made another film city in Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad, for shooting the movie. The sets of the film span over 100 acres, and in the trailer, one can see it as the fictional place of Khansar.

Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire’s estimated budget is reportedly $48.1 million. Hombale Films has produced the film. Here are Salaar’s cast salaries and how much each actor charged to do the movie.

Prabhas

Pan-India star Prabhas is known for signing big-budget movies for the past several years. The actor became a worldwide sensation after starring in SS Rajamouli’s film series, Baahubali. However, his movies after Baahubali 2, namely Saaho, Radhe Shyam, and Adipurush, were highly criticized by the audience. As a result, all eyes are on Salaar, and fans are eager to know how the movie will perform at the box office. Prabhas has charged a whopping $12 million for playing the lead role, as per Filmibeat. Moreover, the actor is also allegedly charging 10% of the box office earnings.

Prithviraj Sukumaran

The Malayalam actor is playing a mysterious role in the Prashanth Neel directorial. Sukumaran is playing Prabhas’ best friend in the movie and is flaunting an intriguing look. The actor is thrilled to bag the role and has dubbed his own voice in all five languages – Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, and Hindi. While he is already known for starring in and directing several blockbuster movies, he did charge a good amount for Salaar. He is reportedly set to take home $481.8K after the movie.

Shruti Haasan

Shruti Haasan is the leading lady of Salaar, but her role is still kept under wraps. Even in the trailer, the actress’ role was not revealed. However, as per her birthday poster, the actress’s name in the movie is Adya. The Luck star has charged a whopping $963.6K for the film, double the salary of Prithviraj Skumaran.

Jagapathi Babu

This is not the first time that Prabhas and Jagapathi Babu have shared the screen space. They also starred together in the 2022 film Radhe Shyam. The audience is waiting to see how Prashanth Neel has used the actor’s impressive skills because Babu famously plays negative roles in movies. Interestingly, Babu has reportedly charged the same amount as Prithviraj Sukumaran, $481.8K.

Prashanth Neel

Director Prashanth Neel has been spilling beans about the movie for a while now and has also revealed that it will be an emotional one. The director is narrating the story of two friends who will turn enemies. According to reports, Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire will have an open ending and will ignite the audience’s curiosity to watch the next part. As a result, the director is charging $6.02 million for the movie. This is a whopping one compared to Salaar’s cast salaries.

Many box office battles took place throughout the year, and even Salaar will face Shah Rukh Khan’s action comedy Dunki at the box office. Fans have high expectations from the SRK movie because Rajkumar Hirani has helmed the project.

In conclusion, it would be exciting to witness this box office battle that will also take place in the overseas market.
