This December 13th, we are going to see real-life uncle and nephew, Venkatesh and Naga Chaitanya, together on the silver screen as their “Venky Mama” is getting ready for a release. Here’s an interesting snippet about the remuneration they have charged for this film.
Though Venky is quoting nearly 5 crores if any outside producer approaches him for a movie, he’s said to have pocketed only half of that for this film. As it is produced by Suresh Babu on their own banner, maybe the senior hero is taking a share in profits some say. So what is the remuneration Naga Chaitanya has taken?
Though Chay is quoting around 5 crores for outsiders, he’s said to have done his part only for 1.75 crores remuneration as the number of days he contributed for the movie are very less compared to films that have him as a solo hero. Also, it is being heard that as the budget of the film escalated, both the heroes have cut down their remuneration to a half.
Directed by KS Ravindra of Sardar Gabbar Singh fame, Venky Mama has Raashi Khanna and Payal Rajput as leading ladies, while Thaman has scored the music.
