Rajinikanth charges hefty fees for his films, he is known for offering a unique guarantee to producers, On the other hand Bollywood’s legendary Big B is known for his substantial investments.
Let’s begin with the iconic Rajinikanth, whose journey from earning a modest ₹30,000 per film to now commanding ₹100 crore per movie is truly inspiring. His latest film, Jailer, saw Rajinikanth pocket a record-breaking ₹110 crore as his fee, setting a new benchmark in Indian cinema for the highest salary ever paid to an actor.
Though Rajinikanth charges hefty fees for his films, he is known for offering a unique guarantee to producers: if the film flops, he will refund the fee. Unlike many modern-day actors who rake in huge sums from brand endorsements, Rajinikanth has never taken up any such deals, yet he has amassed incredible wealth over the years.
The actor owns a luxurious ₹35 crore residence in Chennai’s upscale area and a wedding hall valued at ₹20 crore, which can accommodate 1,000 guests. His car collection is nothing short of impressive, featuring the likes of a Rolls-Royce Ghost (₹6.5 crore), Rolls-Royce Phantom (₹16.5 crore), along with top-of-the-line models like BMW, Mercedes, Bentley, and Lamborghini.
Now, shifting focus to Bollywood’s legendary Amitabh Bachchan. Known for his substantial investments, Big B’s Mumbai home Jalsa is valued at ₹110 crore. He also owns the bungalows Pratiksha (₹40 crore) and Janak (₹50 crore), along with another property worth ₹45 crore in the Juhu area. Beyond Mumbai, he owns land worth ₹3 crore in Pawna and Pune, and a villa in France worth ₹2.87 crore. His total real estate portfolio is valued at around ₹200 crore.
When it comes to his car collection, Amitabh is no less impressive, with a total value of ₹20 crore, including a Rolls-Royce Phantom (₹3 crore), a Mercedes (₹2.12 crore), and a Range Rover (₹3.76 crore).
Amitabh’s wealth doesn’t end with real estate and cars. He also has significant investments in precious items, including ₹28.91 crore worth of jewelry, ₹2.09 crore in gold, and ₹5.30 crore in silver, bringing his total investments in jewels to ₹36 crore. His home contains art pieces like a ₹4.4 crore painting and a ₹3.4 crore watch, while household items are estimated to be worth ₹10 crore. Additionally, he holds around ₹97 crore worth of investments in companies and the stock market.
In terms of total net worth, Amitabh Bachchan leads with an astonishing ₹3,190 crore, thanks to his endorsements with over 100 brands. Meanwhile, Rajinikanth, who has never endorsed a product, has an estimated net worth of ₹430 crore.
