As per a Bollywood Hungama report, Saif has incremented his acting fees to a super huge amount!
A source says, “As Vikram Vedha is set to go on the floors this summer, we hear, all the paperwork was done recently. While the pay structure of Hrithik is kept under wraps, Saif Ali Khan has charged an upfront fee of Rs. 12 crores to come on board the film,” confirming that Saif’s current fee is Rs 12 Crores.
“Be it a two hero film or a solo project, Saif at present is charging anywhere in the range of Rs. 12 crores, depending on the scale and reach of the story.
