Global icon Priyanka Chopra is reportedly making history as SS Rajamouli’s highest-paid heroine in his upcoming magnum opus, SSMB29, co-starring Mahesh Babu. The film, touted as a globe-trotting adventure, has already generated immense buzz, and recent reports suggest that Priyanka has secured a staggering ₹30 crore as her paycheck.
A Record-Breaking Remuneration
If the reports are accurate, Priyanka’s fee surpasses the remuneration of Alia Bhatt, who earned ₹9 crore for RRR, and Anushka Shetty, who received ₹5 crore for Baahubali. This makes her the highest-paid female star in Rajamouli’s cinematic universe.
While there has been no official confirmation from the film’s team regarding her salary, the speculation has already stirred excitement among fans.
Strict Confidentiality on Set
The production of SSMB29 is already underway, with both Mahesh Babu and Priyanka Chopra actively participating in the shoot at Hyderabad’s Aluminium Factory. Given the high stakes of the project, Rajamouli has enforced strict security protocols on set, including:
A Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) for the cast and crew
A ban on mobile phones to prevent leaks
A highly secretive shooting schedule
Exotic Filming Locations
Reports also indicate that a significant portion of the film will be shot in Kenya’s dense forests, adding an element of authenticity to its adventure theme.
As anticipation for SSMB29 continues to build, fans eagerly await official updates from the makers regarding the cast, storyline, and release date.
