In the realm of Indian cinema, few names resonate as powerfully as Shah Rukh Khan and Rajinikanth, long revered as the industry's highest earners. However, the landscape of Bollywood and Kollywood has experienced a significant shift with the meteoric rise of Tamil superstar Thalapathy Vijay. His films have not only dominated the box office but have also set new benchmarks for earnings, establishing him as a formidable force in the film industry.
Thalapathy Vijay is currently engrossed in the production of Thalapathy 69, a project that marks a poignant milestone as it will be his final film. His recent cinematic endeavor, GOT, reportedly secured him a staggering fee of 200 crores. In a surprising twist, for his forthcoming film, Vijay has dramatically escalated his remuneration, a move that is poised to leave many in awe.
Surpassing Shah Rukh Khan
Recent reports reveal that Thalapathy Vijay has commanded an astonishing fee of 275 crores for Thalapathy 69, thus ascending to the status of the highest-paid actor in India. This surpasses the previous record held by Shah Rukh Khan, who has been a stalwart in the industry with a fee of 250 crores per film. This landmark achievement not only underscores Vijay's popularity but also reflects his unparalleled box office appeal.
Final Film: Thalapathy 69
As Vijay prepares to bid adieu to his illustrious acting career, his final film, Thalapathy 69, directed by the acclaimed H. Vinod, is set for release next October. This highly anticipated project promises to showcase Vijay's acting prowess, bringing to a close an extraordinary journey spanning over three decades.
Beyond the silver screen, Vijay has hinted at a new chapter in his life. He recently announced the establishment of his political party, the Tamil Nadu Victory Corporation, a move that signifies his intent to influence social and political landscapes following his departure from acting.
Throughout his illustrious career, Thalapathy Vijay has starred in 68 films, with Thalapathy 69 poised to be his 69th project.
