Talented Malayalam actor Fahadh Faasil is reportedly drawing Rs 7 crores for his baddie cop act in the much-awaited filme 'Pushpa The Rule’ opposite Allu Arjun.
Actually, Fahadh draws anywhere between Rs 4 to 5 crore to play the lead in Malayalam movies since those films are made with limited budgets. “Fahadh is drawing Rs 7 crores for Pushpa The Rule' to become one of the highest paid villains in Telugu films,” says a source.
Actually, he took Rs 3 crore for his restrained performance in ‘Pushpa The Rise;’ and proved his mettle with a menacing performance and his dialogue ‘Party Ledha Pushpa’ has become a catchword in Tollywood and other industries. “He is a very talented actor who can do all kinds of roles effortlessly but when he is asked to essay a role with negative shades he prefers to draw big sums. He also rejected few offers from Telugu after ‘Pushpa The Rise’ since he is not planning to turn into a regular villain,” he adds.
He also played a wicked and caste-ist politician in Tamil film ‘Mammannan’ which was dubbed into Telugu as ‘Nayakudu’. “He kills his pet dog by brutally thrashing it with a stick for disobeying him,” the source adds.
His notable Malayalam films include 'Chaappa Kurishu', '22 Female Kottayam,' North 24 Kaatham' and 'Takeoff' to mention a few from his illustrious acting career.
