Top producer on Sreeleela crazy demands

Sreeleela shot to fame with in a short span and romanced top stars in Tollywood. However of late, rumours have been surfacing that Sreeleela has been demanding over Rs 7crs as remuneration and her mother is dictating terms and this is resulting in her ouster from high profile projects.

It is known that recently Sreeleela was out of Akhil's project Lenin. In the midst of all this, a top producer shared “These are baseless and false rumours,” and added “Despite all the pan-India talk, Telugu producers have generally remained moderate in their payments to heroines,”

He revealed that Rashmika Mandanna, Tamannaah, Janhvi Kapoor, Sreeleela, Mrunal Thakuar and Shruti Haasan currently command anywhere between Rs 3 to 5 crore. “Rashmika has a slight edge over her contemporaries and could surpass Rs 5 crore with her next film, for her pan-India hits, but none of them are drawing Rs 7 or 8 crore — those numbers are simply not true,”

He continued further and said “Priyanka Chopra is reportedly being paid Rs 30 crore for SSMM29, while Deepika Padukone pocketed around Rs 20 crore for Kalki 2898 AD,”

Analysing further,he said “They’re global names with international endorsements and millions of followers on social media. Their 20 to 30 million followers on Instagram or X add to their brand equity and widen the audience base, which justifies higher remuneration.”
