Deepika is naturally on the top of her game after all her recent outings in the past few years have been hits- Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, Chennai Express, Ram Leela, Happy New Year, Piku, Tamasha and Bajirao Mastani.
Deepika has also been ranked 10th in the Forbes list world’s highest actresses. This is after her Hollywood debut with Vin Diesel which is all set to release early next year. Padukone is on a high as she has been receiving positive reviews for the XXX: Return of Xander Cage’s trailer. She Serena Unger, the love interest of Vin Diesel in the film and the Hollywood hunk already called Deepika as the ‘next global superstar.’
After her Hollywood outing, Deepika has considerably hiked her fee and producers are more than happy to pay her for as she has delivered stunning hits in the past year.
Even though this is a good news for Deepika as she is the highest paid actress in Bollywood, you will not believe how the actors gets. Salman Khan, the highest paid actor in Bollywood, is paid a whopping 60 crore for each movie. That’s nearly a 4 fold jump! Producers are blind not to see this huge wage disparity between actors and actresses. We believe with the surge in female-centric films being made in Bollywood, this gap will considerably reduce in the coming years.
