Kuberaa cast fees: Dhanush takes home 36 percent of film's budget, Nagarjuna bags Rs 14 crores — Report
The movie's predominant star cast, including actors like Dhanush, Nagarjuna Akkineni, and Rashmika Mandanna, has also been one of the key factors in keeping it in the limelight.
What is Dhanush's fee for Kuberaa?
Dhanush is marked by his terrific footfall among Tamil and Telugu audiences, and his screen presence commands a substantial fan following. The actor who plays the role of Deva in the movie is reportedly charging nearly 36 percent of the film's total budget.
A Daily Jagran report states that his fees is near approximately Rs. 30 crores for the movie, and he is the highest-paid star in Kuberaa.
Nagarjuna Akkineni bags paycheck worth crores
Up next, Yuvasamrat Nagarjuna Akkineni is the second-highest-paid actor in Kuberaa. The seasoned actor has already made headlines with his somber yet shadowy presence in the film, as evident in its trailer.
A Filmibeat report claims that he is taking home a paycheck of Rs. 14 crores for his role as Deepak.
Did Rashmika Mandanna reduce her remuneration for Kuberaa?
Rashmika Mandanna plays the poignant role of Sameera in Sekhar Kammula's film. The actress is sharing the screen for the first time with actors like Dhanush and Nagarjuna.
Nevertheless, it seems she has been earning comparatively more spotlight than the other two stars among fans, as Rashmika is already an established name in pan-Indian cinema. The diva is reportedly charging Rs. 4 crore for her role in the film.
This is significantly less than Rashmika's fees in Pushpa 2, where she earned Rs. 10 crores and had become one of the highest-paid actresses among her contemporaries.

Sagarika Chakraborty, who inspired Rani Mukerji's Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway, reacts to actress' National Award win: ‘Not just a personal triumph for her, it's a moment of validation for eve
Sagarika Chakraborty, the Indian mother who inspired this hard-hitting movie, shared her thoughts on Rani's win in an exclusive interview with Firstpost and said 'This recognition is not just a personal triumph for her—it is a moment of validation for every mother who has ever fought against unimaginable odds for her children'. read more Yesterday, (1st August), the 71st National Awards were announced and Rani Mukerji bagged the Best Actress win for her impactful portrayal in Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway. Now, Sagarika Chakraborty, the Indian mother who inspired this hard-hitting movie, shared her thoughts on Rani's win in an exclusive interview with Firstpost and said 'This recognition is not just a personal triumph for her—it is a moment of validation for every mother who has ever fought against unimaginable odds for her children.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'As the real-life inspiration behind _Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway_ and the author of The Journey of a Mother, I am overwhelmed with emotion to see Rani Mukerji honored with the National Award for her performance in the film. This recognition is not just a personal triumph for her—it is a moment of validation for every mother who has ever fought against unimaginable odds for her children,' said Chakraborty. Talking about her book and praising Rani Mukerji's layered and extraordinary portrayal, she added, 'My book chronicles the raw, often painful truth of what I endured. The circumstances I was forced to navigate were far more complex and heartbreaking than what could be portrayed in a two-hour film. Yet within that limitation, Rani Mukerji nailed it. Her portrayal was deeply moving, layered, and extraordinarily powerful. She brought not just authenticity but soul to my story—her performance was nothing short of outstanding.' Sharing that reality was more painful compared to shown in the film, Chakraborty shared, 'Of course, cinema has its own constraints. It's impossible to encapsulate every detail and emotional turn of events in just over two hours. That's why I've carefully documented the many twists, legal battles, and emotional breakdowns in my book. The reality was even more painful and demanding than what the audience witnessed on screen. Every page of The Journey of a Mother is a testament to the strength and endurance a mother must summon when her children are at stake.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Sagarika also shared that she has already started work on the second part of her book, which will lead to a possible sequel. 'Given the overwhelming response and the global relevance of this issue, I have already begun working on the second part of my book. There is so much more yet to be said—more layers to this journey that the world needs to understand. Once the writing is complete, I plan to engage in discussions with the director and producers about a potential sequel. There are still many truths to be told,' the author said. 'Above all, I am immensely happy and proud that Rani Mukerji's incredible performance has received the recognition it truly deserves. I believe stories like mine must reach people—not only to raise awareness, but to inspire courage, hope, and change in society. If this film and my book can empower even one struggling parent, then all the pain was not in vain,' she concluded. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

Meet man, owner of mansion bigger than Taj Mahal, it is worth over Rs 9160000000, located in..., owner is...
Meet man, owner of mansion bigger than Taj Mahal, it is worth over Rs 9160000000, located in..., owner is... A huge and famous mansion in Los Angeles has been sold to a new owner. The property is even bigger than the Taj Mahal or the White House. It is around 56,500 square feet in size and is spread over about 5 acres of land. This grand house, known as The Manor or Spelling Manor, was built in the 1990s for TV producer Aaron Spelling, who created popular shows like Charlie's Angels, Beverly Hills 90210, and Charmed. Over the years, the mansion has had different owners. Now, it belongs to Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google. The real estate deal was handled by Drew Fenton, head of Carolwood Estates in Beverly Hills. He announced the news on Instagram, saying this sale was one of the most expensive home sales of the year, matching the price of another luxury home sold in Bel-Air earlier in May. Ex-Google CEO buys famous LA mansion, plans new name and makeover Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt and his wife Wendy Schmidt have bought one of Los Angeles' most well-known mansions for USD 110 million, as reported by the Wall Street Journal. Eric Schmidt, who has a net worth of around USD 25.5 billion, plans to use the home not just for living but also for hosting meetings and events related to local charities and cultural groups in LA. The huge estate, once known as Spelling Manor or Candyland, was originally built for famous TV producer Aaron Spelling. But now, the Schmidts plan to remodel the mansion to make it more energy-efficient and modern. They also plan to give it a fresh identity. Instead of its older names, they will simply call it '594,' based on its address: 594 S Mapleton Drive, in the upscale Holmby Hills area. Eric Schmidt buys luxurious LA mansion at a major discount, here's what it includes Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt and his wife Wendy Schmidt bought a stunning Los Angeles mansion for USD 110 million — but that's actually a big discount compared to its past prices. The house was originally listed for USD 137.5 million after years of sitting on the market with several price drops. Back in 2019, British heiress Petra Ecclestone, daughter of Formula One legend Bernie Ecclestone, sold it for around USD 120 million. She had lived there after the death of the original owner, famous TV producer Aaron Spelling. The house, known as 'The Manor,' is massive, with 14 bedrooms and 27 bathrooms. It also includes: A two-lane bowling alley A wine cellar A beauty salon with massage and tanning rooms A 20-seat screening room with a 60-foot screen that hides in the floor A swimming pool made with 170,000 glass tiles A private tennis court This grand estate, sitting in LA's Holmby Hills, is now one of the most iconic homes in the city — and the Schmidts got it for far less than its asking price.
