Malayalam movie actors remuneration list

Malayalam movie industry is smaller when compared to Bollywood/Kollywood/Tollywood. The industry witnessed it’s first 100 crore movie only recently in Pulimurugan. The business prospects and markets are wider for other language movies when compared to Malayalam films. So naturally the pay for stars there are also on the higher side. In fact, 3-4 Malayalam movies can be produced with the remuneration of a star actor from other industries.

Pulimurugan star Mohanlal is the highest paid actor currently in the industry while Prithviraj is the highest paid among the youngsters. Many commercial blockbusters have released in the past few years and hence there is a obvious hike in the actor’s remunerations also.

Mohanlal

Mohanlal is the highest paid actor in the industry with his pay ranging from Rs 4-5 crores. After the blockbuster success of Pulimurugan and Janatha Garage, Mohanlal has increased his salary. The actor was paid 3 crores in 2015. Now, Mohanlal is paid 5 crores from big budget movies and around 8 crores for other language movies. 70% of the total amount has to be paid beforehand itself.

Mammootty

Mammootty’s salary ranges from Rs 2-2.5 crores. The actor could not deliver a big commercial success in the past few years apart from Bhaskar The Rascal. Mammootty has some huge projects in his kitty for this year. His remuneration is expected to go up once he gives a 50 crore movie.
