Pankaj Tripathi is reportedly the highest-paid actor in Mirzapur: The Movie, allegedly charging around Rs 15 crore for his role as Kaleen Bhaiya. Ali Fazal is said to have earned Rs 4 crore for playing Guddu Pandit, while Divyenndu Sharma reportedly took home Rs 3 crore as Munna Tripathi, according to media reports.
Jitendra Kumar, who steps into the role of Bablu Pandit, reportedly charged Rs 1.5 crore, and Shweta Tripathi is said to have earned about Rs 95 lakh for her part as Golu. The film is reportedly made on a budget of around Rs 250 crore.
These figures are based on unconfirmed media reports. The film releases in theatres on September 4, 2026, after its trailer dropped on August 11, 2026. It is produced by Excel Entertainment and directed by Gurmmeet Singh.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The reported fee jump from the OTT series to a theatrical film reflects the franchise's commercial bet. The Rs 250 crore budget would place it among the most expensive Hindi films, comparable to recent big-budget action dramas. Whether the theatrical gamble pays off depends on opening weekend collections starting September 4, 2026, especially given that the original series built its audience on a streaming platform without a box office track record.
