His movies are earning consistently well. Varun charges higher than him yet his movies are considered hit even when his movies earn half of what Auyshmann's movie earn. His movies have story not big sets, visual effects and unnecessary stuffs to inflate budgets. 10 cr isn't that big if you consider Ranbir and Shahid who charge 25-40 cr.
That was not a dig at Ayushman. This is how PR of some actors work. Actor was paid 20-60 crores still they would claim their 80cr earner is a hit due to small budget movie.
