Hrithik Roshan has done it again. He has hiked his fee for the second time in six years. And this time, the jump is as much as 50 per cent. In 2006, the actor had hiked his fee by 21 per cent. While you do the math, let's sum it up for you. Hrithik has reportedly charged a jaw-dropping amount of Rs 30 crore from Fox Star Studios, the producers of his next Siddharth Anand directorial – the official remake of Hollywood hit Knight And Day starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz And this is the highest amount any actor has charged up front till date. The last time any star came close to this was Salman Khan, who charged Rs 27 crore for Ek Tha Tiger. Apparently, the actor who is currently completing his home production Krrish 3 with director daddy Rakesh, took the decision after the runaway success of Agneepath earlier this year. Though the production house and Hrithik chose to remain tightlipped about the Knight And Day deal, several trade experts and analysts confirmed Hrithik's price hike off the record. In fact trade analyst Amod Mehra opined, "So what if Hrithik is charging Rs 30 crore for the film? I think it's less compared to what he gives in to his projects."
According to a source from the trade, there are only a handful of actors who are considered for solohero projects these days. And most of them (namely, Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar) have a profit-sharing model of remuneration. "Producers often want the top four or five actors. And this is the price you pay for them," said Mehra and added, "The business of cinema has grown with time. And if one wants to recover the cost of making a film, they need one of these big stars and pay them what they demand. They justify the price."
All these things happened after one massala action film imagine if he follow other actors steps and make only massala film .In simple world the sky is the limit
