    TV and Film actor Lakshya is living his big Bollywood dream. He had a smashing debut in the film industry and he has already started the prep for his second film. He will be seen next in a romantic comedy film with well-known actress Ananya Pandey.

    Lakshya took his Instagram account to announce his next film. The film is titled ‘Chand Mera Dil’ and it is directed by Vivek Soni. The film is set to release in 2025. It will be produced by Karan Johar who has signed a three film deal with Lakshya. His previous film ‘Lakshya’s K’ too was produced by Karan Johar.

    While Ananya Pandey is a famous actress, Lakshya is new to films.

    Lakshya

    Lakshya is a TV actor known for featuring as the lead in several blockbuster TV shows.

    After a five-year stint in TV, Lakshya quit television shows to begin his journey in the film industry.

    Lakshya made his film debut with the 2023 film titled ‘Lakshya’s K’.

    Lakshya’s K is a 2023 film. Lakshya’s K is directed by Nikhil Nagesh Bhat and produced by Karan Johar of Dharma Productions and Gueet Monga.

    Lakshya’s K

    Lakshya’s K was released in the US and Canada in 2023 and it was released in India in 2024. It was also shown at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2023 and at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2024.

    Lakshya’s K received widespread positive reviews in the US and won critical acclaim for its writing, screenplay, edition, direction, stunts, and performance of Lakshya.

    Lionsgate and 87Eleven Entertainment, the makers of the John Wick franchise have bought the English remake rights of the film.

    Lakshya’s K was released theatrically in India on 5th July 2024. Again, in India, Lakshya’s K received widespread critical acclaim and is regarded as the best films in India ever. But in India, Lakshya’s K failed to emerge as a commercial hit and was a decent hit at the box office.

    Lakshya’s K is available to watch on Hotstar in India and on Prime Video in the US

    The first two films of Lakshya were shelved and later Karan Johar handed over the script of K to him. Lakshya was supposed to make his debut with the sequel of Dostana with Kartik Aaryan and Jhanvi Kapoor. the film was shelved due to the creative differences between Kartik Aaryan and Karan Johar.

    Later, Lakshya was supposed to make his debut with a romantic film with Shanaya Kapoor. That film too got shelved.

    And, now as everyone knows, Lakshya finally made his dream debut with K. In an interview, he said that everything happens for a good reason. K was meant for him and he did it

    Stree 2 is one of the highest grossing Hindi films ever

    Director Amar Kaushik’s 2024 horror comedy directional film ‘Stree 2’ is the highest grossing Hindi film ever.

    Before we get into details, here’s a look at the salary of the lead cast of Stree 2

    Stree 2 Cast Salary

    Cast Fees
    Pankaj Tripathi 5 Crores
    Rajkummar Rao 8 Crores
    Shraddha Kapoor  7 Crores
    Aparshakti Khurrana 1 Crores
    Abhishek Banerjee 1 Cores
    Tamannaah Bhatia (cameo) 1 Crores

    Akshay Kumar (cameo) Free

     

    Stree 2 features actors Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee, and Aparshakti Khurrana in the lead roles.

    Actress Shraddha Kapoor who portrays the character of a ghost in Stree 2 has been paid a whopping 7 crores for her role. She is one of the highest paid actresses among all young actresses in Bollywood. But actresses such as Alia Bhatt and Deepika Padukone charge 20 to 25 crores. In Stree 2, Shraddha Kapoor had less screen time due to her character.

    Actor Rajkummar Rao has been a whopping 7 crores for his performance in Stree 2. He had the maximum screen time in the film among other cast members. Rajkummar Rao usually charges anywhere near 6 to 8 crores per film. He is underpaid as actors such as Varun Dhawan and Kartik Aaryan charge over 20 crores for a film. Rajkummar Rao is one of the greatest actors ever. But he doesn’t enjoy fan following like Varun and Kartik.

    Actors Aparshakti Khurrana and Abhishek Banerjee were paid 1 crore respectively for their performance. They are the underdogs of Stree 1 and Stree 2. Without Aparshakti Khurrana and Abhishek Banerjee, Stree 2 is complete. They both provide the extra dosage of comedy and funniness.

    Superstar Akshay Kumar did his cameo in Stree 2 for free. He charged nothing because of his future collaboration with the makers of Stree 2.

    Last but not least, critically acclaimed actor Pankaj Tripathi brings another charm with himself. Be it Stree 2 or any other film, he is always flawless. He is one of the highest paid actors without featuring in the main role. He has been paid a whopping 5 crores for his performance.

    With an earning of over 800+ crores globally, Stree 2 has emerged as one of the biggest successes in the history of Indian Cinema. The film is jointly produced by Amar Kaushik, Dinesh Vijan, and Jyoti Deshpande.

    Dinesh Vijan is the founder and CEO of the production company Maddock Films while Jyoti Deshpande is the CEO of Jio Studios. Amar Kaushik is the director of the film besides being a co-producer.

    A third part of Stree titled ‘Stree 3’ is planned too
