Actors' Salaries For The Movie Kingdom, From Vijay Deverakonda to Gowtam

Actor Vijay Deverakonda’s latest release, Kingdom, has become the talk of the town. Despite wide promotions, Kingdom failed to live up to audience expectations. There is an ongoing discussion on social media about the cast's remuneration for their roles in the movie.

The film also featured Bhagyashri Borse, Satya Dev, among others. Kingdom was directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri. The film was produced by Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya under the banners of Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas.

If the latest reports are to be believed, Vijay Deverakonda reportedly charged Rs 30 crore for the film. While Anirudh composed the music for Kingdom, he is said to have charged Rs 10 crore. Director Gowtam received a decent payment, said to be Rs 7 crore. The actress Bhagyashri Borse seems to have received the lowest payment on the team, as she was paid Rs 1 crore to be a part of the film.

However, these are just the speculated earnings of the Kingdom cast, and they have not been officially confirmed by any actor or the production house.

Kingdom's collections seem to have dropped on the second day of its release. It remains to be seen how much Kingdom will earn by the end of its theatrical run.

"Set against the backdrop of Telugu tribals turned fishermen being enslaved on a remote Sri Lankan island, the story stretches credibility at every turn. Vijay’s undercover mission to outwit the Sri Lankan army and retrieve hidden gold feels detached from reality. The idea of a few smugglers taking on military force on foreign soil is hard to digest and weakens the film’s dramatic stakes and heroism goes for a toss," our review stated.
