Did Samantha really increase her fees to a whopping Rs 10 crore for Citadel?

Samantha Ruth Prabhu's popularity skyrocketed after her powerful portrayal of Raji, an unwavering Sri Lankan Tamil independence fighter, in Raj and DK's "The Family Man 2." The success of the series, coupled with her mesmerizing special song "Oo Antava" in Allu Arjun's "Pushpa," has significantly increased Samantha's demand in the industry. As a result, her remuneration for upcoming projects has reportedly surged.

Despite the disappointing performance of her recent film "Shaakuntalam" at the box office, Samantha's popularity remains unaffected. In fact, she has set her sights on a pan-India project and has allegedly demanded a staggering Rs 10 crore as her compensation. This news has generated considerable buzz among both filmmakers and fans. However, it's important to note that there has been no official confirmation regarding the authenticity of this report.

Currently, Samantha is immersed in the shooting of "Citadel" in Serbia, where she is sharing the screen with Bollywood superstar Varun Dhawan. "Citadel," created by the talented duo Raj and DK, is the Indian adaptation of the American series of the same name that previously featured Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden.

The anticipation for "Citadel" is high, especially given Samantha's association with the project and its pan-Indian release across multiple languages. Her collaboration with Raj and DK, following the immense success of "The Family Man 2," has further amplified the excitement surrounding the series.

As Samantha continues to conquer new territories in her acting career, her exceptional performance as Raji and her overall popularity have propelled her to new heights. With her ongoing projects and the buzz surrounding her demand and remuneration, Samantha Ruth Prabhu remains an actress to watch out for in the Indian film industry.
