It's not the matter of how many films got flopped but how many turned out to be hits that decides the career of heroes. A single hit takes up their remuneration to new heights.
Balakrishna is the hero who takes remuneration reasonably. He used to bag Rs 8 - 10 Cr before Akhanda. But with its hit his remuneration kept on striding up.
Initially the Balayya's remuneration for Mythri Movies banner was decided to be Rs 10 Cr but that wasn't finalized yet. The final numbers will come into picture after a discussion before the marketing. It could be anywhere around Rs 12 Cr, say sources.
Next he is working with Anil Ravipudi for which he may get around Rs 15 Cr as per the talk.
The remuneration of Tollywood heroes is getting increased with each film. From young heroes to the stars, the remunerations are in between Rs 8 Cr to Rs 70 Cr.
Balayya seems to be reasonable in comparison with other heroes. But here there is a point to be noted. All the recent films of Balayya were not hits, except those directed by Boyapati.
