Salman Khan seems to have become the highest paid actor in Bollywood. The 'Kick' star will be paid a whopping remuneration for Karan Johar's 'Shuddhi', according to reports.

Salman will be paid Rs.150 crore for 'Shuddhi'. The jaw dropping remuneration has left us amazed. Salman never fails to surprise – first there was news about him signing 'Shuddhi' after so many speculations about the lead actors and now his staggering remuneration.

According to reports, Salman said he wanted the first week's worldwide collection as part of his fee. Secondly, he was to be given 40 % of the satellite rights of Shuddhi. And out of the total profits from Shuddhi, Salman will get 20 %, while Dharma Productions will get the rest 80 %.

The total fee adds upto a whopping Rs.150 crores.

However, trade analyst Taran Adarsh was not convinced that Salman would be taking home the quoted amount. Adarsh says the fee is secretly worked up between the producer and the actor. He feels Rs. 150 crore sounds a bit too high.
