It is heard that from Businessman, Mahesh’s remuneration stands at Rs 8 crores per film and 30% share in the final profit. On the other hand, it is heard that Puri’s remuneration is Rs 3 crores and he gets 15% share of the final profit. At this rate, even if ‘Businessman’ makes Rs 40 crores share in the end, the stats can be understood.
The trade pundits say ‘Businessman’ is sure to make more than the nominal Rs 40 crores figure. So, the prediction is that Mahesh is standing next to none other than superstar Rajinikanth in terms of remunerations. What remains to be seen is how will Mahesh change his scales once he makes his debut in Bollywood.
