by IForHer Team
April 8, 2023

While many actors and actresses strive hard to make it big in Bollywood, there are very few who are able to make a mark for themselves. These talented actors and actresses put a lot of effort to become famous names in Bollywood. And, as they honed their skills and their stardom grew, their paycheck also grew from what they earned in their debut movie.

Here is how much these famous actors and actresses were paid in their debut movies vs how much are they paid now:

Salman Khan Paid For Movies

1. Shah Rukh Khan

Picture this – it’s 1992 and a young, charming Shah Rukh Khan makes his debut in Bollywood with Deewana. His paycheque for the film? A mere ₹4 lakhs! Fast forward a bit and SRK lands another film, Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, for which he was paid a measly ₹25,000. Ouch, that’s gotta hurt!

But don’t worry, folks, because things are about to get juicier! This year marks SRK’s 30th anniversary in Bollywood and boy has he come a long way. With countless hits and millions of fans, King Khan now commands a fee of a whopping ₹100 crores for a single movie! Talk about making it big in B-town!

And if that’s not enough to make your jaw drop, get this – for his upcoming flick, Pathaan, SRK has reportedly signed a 45 percent profit-sharing deal with YRF. That’s right, he’s not just taking home a fat paycheck, he’s also getting a share of the profits. Looks like Shah Rukh Khan is not just the king of romance, but also the king of business deals. There you have it, folks – from a struggling newbie to a superstar mogul, Shah Rukh Khan’s journey in Bollywood is so inspiring!

2. Aamir Khan

In the 1980s, a young Aamir Khan was already making waves in Bollywood as a child actor. But his big break as a leading man came with the superhit movie Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak, for which he was paid a humble ₹11,000. That’s right! But cut to 2022 and Mr. Perfectionist took home a cool ₹50 crores for his role.
