From Ranveer Singh to Akshaye Khanna: Remuneration of the Dhurandhar Cast

As the main lead, Ranveer Singh is reportedly taking home a hefty paycheck of ₹30–50 crore for his role as a secret agent in the film, which is inspired by real-life espionage stories from India and Pakistan. He was last seen as the leading man in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani (2023), for which he was said to have earned ₹25 crore. 

Akshaye Khanna’s dialogues from the Dhurandhar trailer have already gone viral. After earning praise for his portrayal of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb in Chhaava, he is now set to take on another intense, dark character in this film. Reports suggest that he received a remuneration of ₹1–3 crore for his role.

Sanjay Dutt is all set to deliver another power-packed performance in Dhurandhar as SP Chaudhary Aslam. Known for his intensity and unmatched screen presence, he adds a compelling edge to the film. Bollywood’s Sanju Baba is reportedly earning ₹8–10 crore for his role.

Post-Covid, R. Madhavan has shifted his focus more towards Bollywood, taking on a series of intriguing Hindi projects across films and web series. In Dhurandhar, he reportedly portrays a character inspired by India’s National Security Advisor, Ajit Doval. His rumored fee of ₹9 crore for the film ranks as the second-highest among the cast members.

Arjun Rampal, who plays Major Iqbal, and Sara, portraying Yalina Jamali, are reported to have earned equal pay of ₹1 crore each for their roles in Dhurandhar. Their performances are expected to add depth and balance to the film’s ensemble cast.
