Entire Tollywood is after Music Director Anirudh Ravichander. Heroes and Director want him to enhance their film and fans so want to see their heroes in full glory with his electrifying music. With the demand, Anirudh also got pricey.
He reportedly charged a whopping 15 Crore for Nani’s The Paradise. The first single, Aaya Sher is a humongous chartbuster already and is driving the movie’s craze. He is proving to be completely worth.
And then, he charged even more for Allu Arjun’s next with Lokesh Kanagaraj. He reportedly took home 21 Crore for the film.
We have seen Lokesh dropping a glimpse during the film’s announcement and the music for it proved that the 21 Crore paycheck is completely worth for the star musician.
This remuneration is equal or more than many medium-range heroes in the industry right now.
Very soon, it may become even big. The Remunerations of the Hero and Director form the major chunk of Budgets in big films. Just imagine Music Director’s remuneration becoming equally big.
The Music Rights market is quickly deteriorating but then, the producers are still willing to shell out big money because the Anirudh factor will increase the film’s hype and business in totality.
However, even if the Producers are ready to give the big money, dates are playing spoilsport because he is extremely busy in Telugu and Tamil right now.
