This Diwali will witness the clash of two major Bollywood releases, Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again and Anees Bazmee’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, a horror-comedy filled with excitement and suspense. The star-studded cast of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 includes Kartik Aaryan, Vidya Balan, Madhuri Dixit, and Trupti Dimri. While the movie is eagerly awaited, the fees charged by the actors have become a hot topic, especially with Kartik Aaryan earning the highest.
Kartik Aaryan’s Massive Pay Hike
Kartik Aaryan, reprising his role as Rooh Baba, is reportedly receiving the highest paycheck among the cast. For Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, Kartik has charged an astounding ₹48-50 crore. This is a significant increase from the ₹15 crore he earned in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, reflecting his rising popularity and demand in the industry.
Vidya Balan Returns as Manjulika
Vidya Balan, who portrayed the iconic character Manjulika in the first installment of the Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise, is back to reprise her role in the third film. For this spooky return, Vidya is said to have charged between ₹8 to 10 crore. Her character is one of the most anticipated aspects of the movie, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the plot.
Madhuri Dixit’s Role in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3
Bollywood diva Madhuri Dixit also joins the cast, reportedly playing the role of Manjulika in a different twist. Madhuri is believed to have received a fee ranging from ₹5 to 8 crore for her role, adding star power to the already impressive cast.
Trupti Dimri’s Lower Fee
Trupti Dimri, who is playing Kartik Aaryan’s love interest in the movie, has earned significantly less than her co-stars. She has reportedly charged ₹80 lakh for her role. Trupti, known for her promising performances in films like Animal, is still carving her niche in Bollywood, which may explain the lower fee compared to the senior actors.
A High-Budget Film with Star Power
With a budget of around ₹150 crore, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is gearing up to be one of the biggest releases of the year. The movie is set to hit theaters on November 1, just in time for Diwali, and will compete directly with Singham Again. Despite the competition, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has generated tremendous buzz, particularly after the release of its trailer, which has garnered more positive reactions than its rival’s.
This face-off between two blockbuster films is shaping up to be a major highlight of Diwali, with audiences eagerly awaiting the magic that Kartik Aaryan, Vidya Balan, and the rest of the Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 cast will bring to the big screen.
