Ajith paid a whopping salary?
Meanwhile, there is a strong buzz that Ajith is being paid a whopping Rs 175 crore for the film, which is said to be one of the highest in his career. Adhik, we hear, has narrated a script to the Vidaa Muyarchi actor. However, there is no official announcement on the project.

Adhik, a huge fan of Ajith
It is to be noted that the Mark Antony director is a diehard fan of Ajith and had even dedicated the success of his blockbuster film, Mark Antony to the actor. The director, who had earlier helmed films like Trisha Illana Nayanthara, Anbanavan Asaradhavan Adangadhavan and Bagheera, has been desperately looking for a hit. 

When he met his matinee idol Ajith on the sets of Nerkonda Paarvai, the actor motivated him to such a great extent that he began working on Mark Antony with renewed interest. The film, which stars Vishal and SJ Suryah in the lead, went on to become a massive hit and gave Adhik the much-needed break. The director then thanked Ajith for boosting his morale.
