Recently it was revealed that Akshay Kumar charged a massive sum of Rs 120 Crores for his digitally released film Cuttputlli. However, the fee of Akshay Kumar for Selfiee is much lower than that astronomical amount. Selfiee is an upcoming drama movie featuring Akshay Kumar, Emraan Hashmi, Nushrratt Bharuccha and Diana Penty in the lead. The film is slated to release in the theatres on 24th February 2023. Here we have covered everything you need to know about the salary of Selfiee cast members, including the shocking fee of Akshay Kumar for the film.
Selfiee Cast Salary
Akshay Kumar is playing the main lead in Selfiee and he is taking home Rs 35 Crores for his role. This is a huge pay cut for him. Akshay’s recent films have been huge flops at the box office, and this may have been the reason that he decided to slash his per-movie fee by a huge margin for this film. Even after a huge pay cut, the salary of Akshay Kumar is much higher than any other actor in the film. His fee is almost five times the next best salary for the film.
Emraan Hashmi is playing the second main lead alongside Akshay Kumar in Selfiee and is charging a whopping fee of Rs 7 Crores for his role. Even though his salary is quite huge, it seems like a small number in front of Akshay Kumar’s salary for Selfiee. Emraan has not been on for quite some time now on the big screen, and Selfiee will mark his return in style.
Nushratt Bharuccha is playing the main female lead in Selfiee and is getting a fee of Rs 2 Crores for her role. On the other hand, Diana Penty, who plays the other female lead in Selfiee is taking home Rs 75 Lakhs as her salary for the film.
Selfiee is directed by Raj Mehta and produced under the banner of Dharma Productions. The film was officially announced in 2022, and a trailer of the film is releasing on 22nc January 2023.
