RRR, directed by SS Rajamouli, has been the talk of the town for quite some time now. The movie, scheduled to hit the theatres on March 25, is expected to be a box office hit. The movie is a period drama set in the pre-Independence era. As per reports, RRR has been made at a whopping budget of 400 crores. For their roles in RRR, Ram Charan and Jr NTR were reportedly each paid Rs 45 crore.
Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn, who appear in cameo roles in the film, have been given Rs 9 crore and Rs 25 crore, respectively for their roles, the report added.
According to the reports, Rajamouli owns a 30 percent share of RRR’s profits, while the film’s producer, D.V.V Danayya, owns the rest. The producers are said to have already made a profit of Rs 300 crores before the film’s release.
