According to a report by 123Telugu, Manchu Manoj received the highest paycheck from the Mirai team. The actor played the role of Mahabir Lama, aka Black Sword, the main antagonist.
For his intense performance as a villain, the popular actor is said to have received a remuneration of Rs 3 crore.
On the other hand, Teja Sajja played Vedha, the prophesied warrior destined to save the world. The HanuMan fame actor reportedly earned Rs 2 crore for his performance.
Apart from Teja and Manoj, Mirai featured Ritika Nayak as the female co-lead, who played the role of Vibha, a sanyasi serving as a mentor to Vedha. The actress apparently received a paycheck of Rs 50 lakh for her role.
Moreover, Shriya Saran played an integral role in the film’s narrative and delivered a powerful performance. The actress is said to have received nearly Rs 2 crore.
Looking ahead, actors Jagapathi Babu and Jayaram were also part of the film in pivotal roles, despite limited screen time. While Jagapathi was paid Rs 1.5 crore for his performance, Jayaram is said to have received Rs 80 lakh.
While these are the reported figures, there has been no official confirmation about the salaries from the makers.
