Akshay KumarAkshay Kumar is one of  the highest paid actors in the industry today, and with the number of films that he signs per year, he earns in excess of Rs 100 cr through film assignments alone.

The actor has now gone one step further and charged Rs 40 crore for Rumi Jaffery’s upcoming film, the shooting of which will be completed in less than 3 weeks! You heard it right – if industry insiders are to be believed, the actor has been paid Rs 40 crore for a 3 week assignment.

A source close to the development says, Nargis Fakhri has been signed to play the female lead while veteran actors like Anupam Kher and Paresh Rawal have pivotal roles to play.

    Remember 2000-2009 for Salman khan you will know Why Salman was called Flop Star.
    When was the last time SRK gave an BB think you have to go 5 years back so he is already finished.
    Please don’t talk about Aamir he does not even have 10 hits in his Entire career.

    and this time we are not talking about Amitabh Bachchan so please buzz off this era is not his.

    @Danish—
    Stop being Communal…..
    and we don’t need advice from a fan of Mr CRIMINAL Salman khan.

  • Itz easy to insult an actor,abuse him,criticise him but not praising him for the amount of charity he does without asking media to cover it,loving his fans and forgetting the Superstar status when he meets his fans,recalling his school going friends to meet him whenever he misses them……These things arnt their is any other superstars…..!!
    And people complaining about him not getting many blockbusters………..But time for reality check now…..AKSHAY KUMAR……Has the gutz to release his movies during Ipl,Non-Holiday Weekends and when there is promising lineup of movies in next 3-4 weeks……..Has the gutz to release 4-5 movies in a year,Never in any kind of controversies regardings fights,making fun of people or using his SuperStar status…….Sometimes he succedes and sometimes he fails but thats what Life is all about…..He is a SelfMade Superstar and i respect that cause i am one of his Millions of Fans worldwide……Akshay I Love You….Stay Blessed MAn…!!
