MUMBAI: After the massive failure od Radhe Shyam, Baahubali actor Prabhas is gearing up for his upcoming project ‘Adipurush’ co-starring Kriti Sanon and Saif Ali Khan. However, according to the latest reports, Prabhas has supposedly asked the makers of Adipurush to hike his fee to a jaw-dropping ₹120 crore. Earlier, his fee for the movie was said to be somewhere between ₹90-100 crore.

This has apparently put the producers in a fix because on one hand, giving into Prabhas' demand shoots the budget up by about 25%, and on the other, with a sizeable portion of the film left to shoot, not giving into his demand could create unwanted friction on the sets. What's more astonishing is the actor's demand despite the disastrous performance of Radhe Shyam at the box office.

Prabhas starrer Adipurush is for all intents and purposes one of the most anticipated upcoming Indian films, and the fact that it's being projected as a pan-India film, mounted on lavish budget, against the backdrop of Hindu mythology, from the Director of Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, Om Raut, makes Adipurush all the more anticipated. That Being said, the Prabhas, Kriti Sanon and Saif Ali Khan starrer seems to be facing choppy waters now and that, too, due to its lead star. The film is slated to release on 12th January 2023.
