This year, her movie Fighter didn’t earn as much as expected; however, Kalki 2898 AD has crossed over Rs 1000 crore at the worldwide box office. The second highest-paid actress in the film industry is Alia Bhatt. The Darlings actress charges Rs 15 crores for her movies. According to reports, the actress may cross Deepika, given that she has some major releases like Jigra, Alpha, and Love & War.

Shraddha Kapoor and Katrina Kaif have a similar fee range of Rs 8–10 crores. The next on the list are Kriti Sanon, Kiara Advani, Kangana Ranaut, and Taapsee Pannu, who charge somewhere between Rs 5 and 8 crores.

A producer told the portal that if the cost of production for a female solo project is only Rs 20–25 crores, he wouldn’t mind paying the actress Rs 5 or even 7 crores. The producer stated that while an actress charges less for a usual mainstream film with a male lead actor, the lower budget of her female-centric film and her leading role justify a higher payment.
