The actress has reportedly inked a lucrative deal for her upcoming project with powerhouse producer Ekta Kapoor. If sources are to be believed, Shraddha’s paycheck for this film ranks among the highest for a female lead in Bollywood today — a true testament to her rising star power and box office pull.
A High-Concept Thriller with Rahi Anil Barve
According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, Shraddha has signed on for a high-concept thriller produced by Ektaa Kapoor and helmed by Tumbbad director Rahi Anil Barve. The film is expected to go on floors in the second half of 2025. While Shraddha hasn’t made an official announcement yet, industry buzz suggests this could be her first big project following the release of Stree 2.
Rs 17 Crore Fee and Profit Sharing Agreement
A source told the news portal that Shraddha's paycheck for this upcoming project is one of the highest ever for a female lead in Hindi cinema today. Ektaa Kapoor, recognizing the potential of the film, reportedly invested Rs 17 crore to sign Shraddha for the high-concept thriller. This film will serve as her follow-up to the record-breaking success of Stree 2, the highest-grossing film in Hindi cinema.
In addition to her substantial upfront fee, the actress has reportedly secured a profit-sharing agreement for the film. This means that, in addition to her Rs 17 crore acting fee, she will receive a percentage of the profits once the film is released.
