Streaming platforms are undeniably reshaping the definition of stardom. Gone are the days when people thought OTT was for unconventional actors. In fact, this A-list Bollywood actor has broken all boundaries, outshining Bollywood biggies like Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. Earning a staggering ₹ 125 crore for a single show, he's the highest-paid actor on OTT with a net worth of ₹ 427 crore (approximately $50 million USD), as per multiple reports.

Salman Khan is believed to charge a similar amount for his film, Bharat. Around the same time, Salman reportedly received a payment of approximately ₹ 50 crore for his 2021 film Antim: The Final Truth. He is likely to earn a little more for his film Radhe which was also released in the same year. Besides them, Saif Ali Khan who became the first superstar of Bollywood to foray into OTT with Netflix's Sacred Games, charged way less than Ajay.

Deepika Padukone's fans clap back at Sandeep Reddy Vanga after the actress gets on board for Atlee's film with Allu Arjun; call him 'Manchild'

Deepika Padukone is making waves after reportedly exiting Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit and swiftly joining Atlee and Allu Arjun's AA22xA6. The announcement, featuring a fierce Deepika in action-packed scenes, ignited social media, with fans praising her move and criticizing Vanga. Amidst rumors of scheduling conflicts with other projects, Atlee is being lauded for respecting Padukone's vision. Deepika Padukone is once again dominating headlines—but this time, it's not just for her next big project. After being reportedly dropped from Sandeep Reddy Vanga 's Spirit, the actress has now joined Atlee and Allu Arjun 's much-anticipated Telugu film, AA22xA6. The timing of the announcement has sparked a storm on social media, with fans fiercely defending Deepika and slamming Vanga, calling her casting in Atlee's film the ultimate power move. Earlier today, the makers of AA22xA6 unveiled an exciting announcement video, officially welcoming Deepika Padukone to the cast. The video teases her in a fierce, action-packed avatar, hinting at a powerful role. It opens with Deepika in conversation with director Atlee as they go over the script, followed by behind-the-scenes glimpses of her prepping for high-octane CGI sequences. From wielding a sword to riding a dummy horse, the footage promises Deepika like never before. As the announcement video went viral across social media, Deepika Padukone's fans took to Reddit to troll Sandeep Reddy Vanga. While one user wrote, 'Yup, so it was never about speaking Telugu or 8 hours or remuneration. All those were lies? Guess we now know who the bigger liar was in this whole saga', another one added, 'Man child Vangu crying in the corner'. A user also commented, 'She has been the top actress for years. No Sandeep Reddy Vanga can make her sit at home'. One person wrote, 'Just as there were rumours about her being ousted from another movie over her 8-hour shift demands, this is a knockout move. A statement made loud & clear. Good for her.' Interestingly, the announcement comes at a time when Deepika Padukone is caught in the middle of the Spirit exit controversy. Adding to the buzz, rumours suggest that even Kalki 2898 AD director Nag Ashwin is reportedly finding it difficult to align with some of her demands—though there's no official word on this yet. Still, the chatter around Deepika's upcoming projects has sparked a frenzy online. Amid the noise, fans are lauding director Atlee for 'understanding' and 'respecting' Deepika's vision and superstar stature.
