The importance of background music may be seen clearly in a few of the epic box office successes in Indian cinema within the post-COVID era. Many magnum opuses managed to create a storm as a consequence of strong BGM. Anirudh Ravichander is considered one of those music composers who showed us how the film may be uplifted through a strong background rating. For his impactful work, the 34-year-old has been getting paid handsomely recently. Shockingly, his reported salary is greater than double AR Rahman’s remuneration for an upcoming biggie.
AR Rahman’s sum for RC 16
To be very honest, AR Rahman has lost his touch recently and is failing to deliver memorable albums and background scores. While Chhaava is doing record-breaking numbers on the box office, Rahman is receiving criticism for his weak background music. But such lows aren’t affecting his stature a bit out there, and his remuneration for RC 16 is proof.
RC 16, Ram Charan’s sixteenth film, is a pan-India film. It’s a sports drama, and AR Rahman has been roped in to compose its music. Now, as per 123Telugu’s report, the legendary music composer is receiving a large salary of 8 crores. It’s really an enormous sum, but in comparison with Anirudh’s rumored remuneration for Jailer 2, it’s way too less.
Anirudh VS AR Rahman salary
While there’s no official confirmation concerning the same, a number of weeks back, the industry buzz suggested that Anirudh has received an unbelievable hike for Jailer 2. For individuals who aren’t aware, the talented music composer was paid a sum of 10 crores for Jailer. As Ani’s music played an important role in Jailer’s blockbuster success, he has been given an 80% hike.
It is alleged that Anirudh is receiving a staggering 18 crores for Jailer 2. If a comparison is made, he’s ahead of AR Rahman by a margin of 10 crores. If calculated ahead, Ani’s remuneration is 125% higher than that of ARR’s paycheck for RC 16. Insane, isn’t it?
