Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, Vijay, Suriya and Ajith are Tamil Film Industry’s Highest Paid Actors

    Bollywood’s highest paid actors charge anywhere from 30 to 70 crore per film. In the south, also known as Kollywood, actors there charge relatively less and actors in the Tamil film industry also make it a point to help those in need publicly. Currently in the Tamil film industry, there are only two legendary actors with humoungous fan followings and they are Rajnikanth and Kamal Haasan. It’s no wonder that they are the highest paid actors in Tamil Nadu though we would think that Kamal Haasan would be getting more money as he tends to play more characters in a single film than other actors! Aside from these two legendary actors, let’s see how much are the other Tamil actors making per film. It’s safe to see here on this list that a few popular Tamil actors earn as much as a popular Hindi film actress earns.
