    Dhamaka: Kartik Aaryan To Take Home Rs. 7 Crores Extra After Film Heads For Direct OTT Release?

    Kartik Aaryan's upcoming film Dhamaka will give the audiences a chance to see the actor in an intense avatar. It will be a break from his chocolate boy and romantic hero look and needless to say, fans are eagerly waiting for this one. With Neerja director Ram Madhavani helming it, the film has become all the more exciting. It has also been heard that instead of a theatrical release, it would directly head to an OTT platform. Now, we are getting to hear that Kartik Aaryan would be taking home some extra moolah because of this decision!

    If a report in popular portal stated that the actor had taken a stipulated fee for the film, along with a portion of the profit. A source said, “Kartik has become quite a bankable star in his own right, keeping this in mind Ronnie Screwvala had entered into an agreement with Kartik which included a share of the film’s profits along with Rs. 10 cr. fee. Though Kartik has become quite big, he isn’t that big a star who can influence a producer’s decision. However, Kartik was very clear that he wanted a bigger paycheque for a digital premiere, and now with Netflix in the final stages of acquiring the film, this is exactly what happened.” It was further added he would take an additional Rs.7 crores after the Rs. 10 crores that he has already received.

    However, we have learnt from official sources that this rumour is not true. It has also been said that Kartik would not be getting any extra amount for Dhamaka's OTT release. Earlier, it was also rumoured that he got a whopping Rs. 20 crores for this film, for which he had shot for 10 days. But later, another source clarified that the budget of the film wasn't that huge and it was a rumour.
