Deepika Padukone will soon appear alongside Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna in Atlee’s new movie, Raaka. Fans have been looking forward to this film, and it has just come to light how much each actor will be paid for this project, which is said to cost around Rs 700 crore. According to a report, Allu Arjun will receive Rs 175 crore for his role in Raaka. It is said that the Telugu star will portray three characters in the movie – a police officer, a half-human half-monster, and the father of two brothers. Meanwhile, Deepika Padukone is rumored to earn Rs 25 crore for her role in the film. If this information is accurate, it suggests that the Bollywood star is making seven times less than her co-star, Allu Arjun. The report further indicates that Rashmika Mandanna will be compensated around Rs 5 crore for her role in Raaka. However, it’s important to mention that these amounts have not been officially confirmed.
Recently, to celebrate Allu Arjun’s 44th birthday, the team behind Raaka released a poster, providing a glimpse into the world that Atlee is creating. In the poster, Allu Arjun’s face is partially covered by thick fur, with a prominent tusk-like feature giving it a wild appearance. His eyes stood out, appearing strong and enigmatic. While unveiling the poster and announcing the film's title, the creators stated, “AA22xA6 is now Raaka Get ready for a vision beyond limits. " Besides Allu Arjun, Deepika Padukone, and Rashmika Mandanna, the movie is expected to include several well-known actors in significant roles. Reports suggest that Mrunal Thakur and Janhvi Kapoor will play important characters in the film. This production is reportedly backed by a substantial budget exceeding Rs 700 crore and is being made by Sun Pictures. The team is anticipated to start filming at a studio in Mumbai soon, with production likely ongoing throughout the year. If everything proceeds as planned, the filming of this ambitious project could be completed by the end of 2026.
