Whenever we speak of remunerations, the focus is always on the heroes and their pay packages. But that is not the case in Bollywood because top league starlets get a fat pay cheque for their work. So far, the race for the most expensive actress in India has been solo.
It was the burgundy eyed beauty Deepika Padukone who got a whopping 10 crores for her movie Bajirao Mastani and is expected to get 12 crores for her next Padmavati. But now, her place seems to be taken by yet another starlet who is somewhat senior.
She is the sensuous Brahmin beauty Vidya Balan. According to reports, Vidya is getting paid a mind boggling 18 crores for her new movie which is a biopic on the Iron lady of India, Indira Gandhi. Given her high performance quotient, this figure looks justified. Let us see who comes next.
