Priyanka Chopra’s turn towards Hollywood seems to have turned up
lucrative. With film projects in both
Hollywood and Bollywood, as well as a starring role on a broadcast show and a
handful of lucrative endorsements, Chopra has managed to parlay that fame into
quite the paycheck. According to Forbes, she made $10 million between June
1, 2016 and June 1, 2017, making her Bollywood's seventh highest-paid star.
Well that’s a whooping amount of 64 crore. Despite such huge earnings she
trails Deepika Padukone, who made $11 million.

Now
her competitor Deepika, has taken a break from Hollywood due to Padmavati which is a periodic film that tells the story of
Alauddin Khilji, the medieval-era Delhi ruler, who was infatuated with Rajput
queen Padmavati. There were rumors of Deepika being paid more as compared to her
co-actors in the film. And now it has been confirmed that Deepika will take home a whopping Rs. 13 crore, while
Ranveer and Shahid will share equal digits that read close to Rs. 10 crores
respectively.

According to sources, “There are a lot of speculations about the
pay structure of ‘Padmavati’. However, Sanjay Sir was clear that the film
belongs to Deepika. The film is mounted on its female protagonist Deepika
Padukone with the title being a testimony of the actress’ investment in the
project.” This reverse pay scale of Padmavati sets a new precedent in
Bollywood, owing to Deepika’s stardom and primacy of her role.
