Wed Feb 05 08:32:06 UTC 2025: ## Ajith Kumar’s Reported Rs 105 Crore Remuneration for “Vidaamuyarchi” Sparks Debate

**CHENNAI, INDIA – January 26, 2024** – Ajith Kumar’s upcoming action thriller, *Vidaamuyarchi*, set for release on February 6th, is generating significant buzz, not just for its anticipated storyline, but also for the reported astronomical paycheck of its lead actor. A Tamil portal, Cine Ulagam, claims Ajith Kumar received a career-high Rs 105 crore for his role.

While the figure remains unconfirmed, trade analyst Ramesh Bala finds it plausible, stating that a remuneration “north of Rs 100 crore” is possible. However, other industry sources offer differing figures, highlighting the difficulty in verifying such claims.

This reported sum has sparked comparisons with Vijay’s reported Rs 200 crore remuneration for *GOAT*, a figure revealed by the film’s producer. Trade analyst Manobala Vijayabalan cautions against taking such numbers at face value, suggesting that actual remuneration figures are often kept confidential and inflated figures are used for promotional purposes.

*Vidaamuyarchi*, directed by Magizh Thirumeni, follows the protagonist’s desperate search for his missing wife. The film stars Ajith Kumar alongside Trisha, Arjun Sarja, Regina Cassandra, and Arav. The film’s release is highly anticipated by fans of the star, who often draw parallels between Ajith Kumar and Vijay, two prominent Tamil cinema actors who entered the industry around the same time.
