These South Indian stars command a fan following that rivals, and sometimes surpasses, that of their Bollywood counterparts.

While Bollywood icons like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan, and Akshay Kumar have been known for their sky-high fees, Prabhas’ leap to the Rs 100 crore club signifies the growing dominance of South Indian cinema. What makes this achievement even more remarkable is that other superstars like Rajinikanth, Jr NTR, Chiranjeevi, Kamal Haasan, Ram Charan, and Allu Arjun, though immensely popular, were not the first to hit this milestone.Read Also: Shah Rukh Khan Broke a Major Rule on Chak De India Sets for a Heartwarming Reason
Prabhas rose to pan-Indian stardom with the colossal success of the Baahubali franchise, directed by S.S. Rajamouli. These films not only shattered box office records but also catapulted Prabhas into the league of the most bankable stars in India. With this historic fee of Rs 100 crore per film, Prabhas has solidified his position as a trailblazer in the Indian film industry, marking a significant moment for South Indian cinema. His success highlights the power of regional cinema and the unstoppable rise of South Indian stars on the national and global stage.
