Pay Disparity! That’s one debate that not likely to see a concluding facet in the showground from Hollywood to Bollywood. There’s not one actress in the world who hasn’t expressed her displeasure on being paid radically less than her male counterpart in any given project. While actors all over the globe are paid fortunes one can’t simply imagine, actresses too have been fighting it hard to minimize the huge gap.
However, things have started to show some changing trends. While all top actresses in the country were not being vocal enough to express their concerns around this huge disparity, it was Kangana Ranaut who came out and expressed her strong opinion about it. Having gotten herself to the stature of being the highest paid Indian actress, she made way for others to speak. At a time when actors are charging figures that put any given budget of a movie to insignificance, the race to be the top paid actor/actress has also intensified.
In 2016, there has been a considerate shuffling in the ranks of heroines being paid better salaries so let’s take a look at the top 10 Bollywood actresses and their remuneration:
Deepika Padukone
The first on the list is Deepika Padukone who has apparently dethroned Kangana Ranaut as the highest paid actress in the country. While Kangana was being paid a whopping 12-14 crores per movie, Deepika is reportedly being paid close to 15 crores for her upcoming film Padmavati. The actress who had previously been charging 11-12 crores for a movie has recently hiked her fee owing to a very successful 2015.
