R Madhavan has the least screen time in the film, but he has been paid the highest fee after Ranveer Singh.
Aditya Dhar has assembled a formidable star cast for Dhurandhar. The impact is clearly visible in the film’s box office performance. Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, R Madhvan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, and Sara Arjun have all played their respective roles, earning crores of rupees for their work. However, the difference in Ranveer Singh and Akshaye Khanna’s salaries has certainly surprised people. Let’s find out how much each actor received for ‘Dhurandhar’.

Ranveer Singh

Ranveer plays Jaskirat Singh Rangi aka Hamza Ali Mazari in the film, an Indian spy stationed in Pakistan. He received a fee of ₹50 crore for this role, making him the most expensive actor in the project. However, it’s unclear whether Ranveer received this fee for both parts or just the first part.

R Madhavan

Madhavan has been a part of several major Bollywood projects over the past few years. His screen time in “Dhurandhar” Part 1 is less than that of the other actors. In a recent interview, Madhavan revealed that he will have more scenes in the second part, as he will be seen training Ranveer’s character to spy in Pakistan. According to Business Today, he has been paid ₹9 crore for this movie, which is the highest fee received by any actor for this film after Ranveer.

Akshay Khanna

Since the release of “Dhurandhar,” Akshaye Khanna has been the most talked-about actor. People are praising his screen presence, performance, and swagger. He plays Pakistani gangster Rehman Dacoit in the film. However, he received 2.5 crore rupees for this project. This seems quite low considering the hype he received. However, the response to the movie will surely benefit him in other projects.

Sanjay Dutt

Sanjay’s character, SP Chaudhary Aslam, is inspired by the real-life Pakistani police officer Chaudhary Aslam Khan. His entry comes two hours into the three-and-a-half-hour movie. However, he received the same fee as Akshay Kumar, i.e., ₹2.5 crore (approximately $1.5 million). There are reports that his role will be expanded in “Dhurandhar” Part 2.

Arjun Rampal

Arjun Rampal plays ISI Major Iqbal. His casting in “Dhurandhar” generated considerable discussion on social media. People complained about his limited screen time in the first part. However, he has a larger role in “Dhurandhar 2.” He has reportedly been paid ₹1 crore for this film.

Sara Arjun

Sara has over a decade of acting experience as a child artist. However, “Dhurandhar” is her first Bollywood film as a lead. She has been paid ₹1 crore for the film.

The fees for the supporting actors in the film have not been revealed. As for Aditya Dhar, he is the director as well as the producer of the film. It is reported that he has decided to share profits instead of taking a fee for “Dhurandhar.”
