From the start of 2018, Ranveer Singh has had an unbelievable run at the box office. The actor began last year with a blockbuster and ended it with one.

With three back-to-back blockbusters — Padmaavat (Rs 282.28 cr), Simmba (Rs 240.10 cr) and Gully Boy (still running) — bringing in huge box-office revenue, the 33-year-old actor is seen as Bollywood’s definite future. So, it comes as no surprise that his monetary arrangements are being realigned in keeping with his newfound superstar status.

A trade source says that besides offering him “a handsome remuneration, producers are agreeable to giving the young Turk a share in the profits as well.” The source adds, “This is a common practice with all mega-stars — be it the Khans (Aamir, Salman, Shah Rukh), Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn or Ranbir Kapoor. Today, Ranveer is in their league and quite naturally, he is being offered a similar arrangement.”

The Gully Boy star’s equity, which stands at an enviable high, has made him the first choice for reputed filmmakers. “They are sweetening the deal for him by offering him a big margin in the profits,” reveals a top trade source. Ranveer will reportedly have this arrangement for both Kabir Khan’s ’83 and Karan Johar’s Takht, say sources.

Considering he has reached such heights in just nine years, this actor’s success story is absolutely enviable. The trade informer also reveals how profit sharing is a boon for the producers. “Ranveer’s price is bound to soar. It’s a normal career and price trajectory for any superstar. However, most big stars are not keen to over-burden the film with their price and so is Ranveer. He is a conscious artiste who doesn’t believe in front-loading a film. He is confident of what he brings to the table as an actor and a star. He is a collaborative person and it’s good that he wants the movie to do well first and then have a share of profits. It only shows that he stands by his decision to do a film. For the producers, too, it’s a huge win-win because they have an invested actor who is committed to deliver the best for a film first and not just think about his price,” adds the source.
