Thalaiwa got two hundred and ten crores for the film Jailer. Now Rajinikanth is the highest-paid actor leaving Prabhas and Vijay behind.
Rajinikanth has been back in form with the colossal success of Jailer. Rajinikanth proved his detractors wrong as he made a grand comeback alongside Nelson Dilipkumar in Jailer.
Aided by a strong supporting cast and Anirudh Ravichander’s high-octane background music, Jailer provided a great theatrical experience all around.
The film is still going strong at the box office. The official Twitter handle of Sun Pictures tweeted, “Mr. Kalanithi Maran met Superstar @rajinikanth and handed over a cheque, celebrating the historic success of #Jailer.”
For the uninitiated, Rajinikanth has been labeled the highest-paid Indian actor on prior occasions as well.
Right before the release of his S Shankar-directed film Sivaji: The Boss in 2007, the actor was reported to have been the highest-paid Indian actor and the second highest-paid Asian actor.
Rajini has already signed two films and one of them is with Kanagaraj.
