War 2 Bombshell: Hrithik Roshan Bags Whopping ₹100 Crore Payday, Becomes One of India’s Highest-Paid Actors
Bollywood’s Greek God is all set to turn up the heat — and this time, not just on screen. Hrithik Roshan, who returns as Kabir in the highly anticipated War 2, is reportedly earning a massive ₹100 crore for his role in the film, making it one of the biggest paydays in Indian cinema history.
Yes, you read that right. A source close to the project has revealed that Hrithik’s remuneration reflects not just his stardom, but also the sheer scale and stakes of the YRF Spy Universe.
₹100 Crore Club: Hrithik Joins The Elite League
According to industry insiders, Roshan’s ₹100 crore paycheck puts him alongside the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Prabhas, and Rajinikanth — all of whom have commanded similar or higher figures for big-ticket blockbusters.
A trade source revealed:
“Hrithik is not just acting in War 2 — he’s carrying the legacy forward. He’s reprising the character of Kabir, which was a game-changer in the first film. Given the expectations, action scale, and his fan base, he is being paid ₹100 crore, which includes his backend profit share.”
War 2: A Bigger, Bolder Spy Saga
War 2 is being helmed by Ayan Mukerji, known for his visual storytelling in Brahmastra, and features an ensemble cast that includes Jr NTR in a never-seen-before grey role and Kiara Advani in a powerful female lead avatar. The film is expected to take the YRF Spy Universe to its next phase, following the smashing success of Pathaan and Tiger 3.
The film’s story is said to span multiple continents, with high-octane action sequences, cutting-edge VFX, and a clash of ideologies between Kabir (Hrithik) and NTR’s character.
Why The ₹100 Crore Makes Sense
Hrithik Roshan’s brand value goes beyond his acting:
- Massive fanbase across all age groups and demographics
- Known for pulling audiences to theatres, especially for action blockbusters
- Endorses top brands, adding value to marketing
- Guarantees strong box office openings
- Delivers globally appealing action performances
War (2019) grossed over ₹475 crore worldwide, and expectations from War 2 are even higher — especially with Pan-India buzz thanks to Jr NTR and YRF’s cross-film narrative strategy.

What Does This Mean for Bollywood?
Roshan’s ₹100 crore paycheck signifies a power shift in Bollywood’s financial dynamics, where top stars are increasingly sharing in the film’s profits, reflecting their contribution to a film’s commercial success.
It’s also a sign that Bollywood is banking big on its homegrown spy universe, comparable to the Marvel or Mission: Impossible franchises. With budgets reportedly exceeding ₹350 crore, War 2 is not just a film — it’s a cinematic event.
What’s Next for Hrithik?
After War 2, Hrithik is also set to star in the long-awaited Krrish 4, and there’s buzz around a Hollywood collaboration as well. But it’s War 2 that fans and the industry are watching closely — with every move, every poster, and now, every rupee.
Final Word:
From dazzling dance floors to dominating the battlefield of Bollywood blockbusters, Hrithik Roshan is proving once again why he’s a megastar with unmatched charisma and clout. As War 2 gears up for release, all eyes are on Kabir — and the ₹100 crore that says he’s worth every bit.
Brace yourself. Kabir is coming back — and he’s coming for war… and history.
