It’s a known fact that Deepika Padukone went out of her way to accommodate dates for Kochadaiiyaan. It was a golden chance to work with the superstar Rajinikanth which she couldn’t have missed. Now, the industry is abuzz with reports of the actress’ fat paycheque for the film.
Sources claim that though the actress has a full-fledged role in the film, she was required for only a couple of days due to the new Motion Captured Photorealistic technology.
If reports are to be believed then the Chennai Express actress was paid a Rs. 3 crore for a two-day shoot schedule, setting a new benchmark in Bollywood.
According to the movie’s director Soundarya Rajinikanth Ashwin, Deepika was a bit apprehensive about the new technology. “But she soon gave her complete commitment to the project. We completed her portions in 48 hours,” Soundarya is quoted as saying.
Like Rajinikanth, Deepika too will be seen as a warrior in the film. The actress has worn a specially designed bodysuit for the scenes and gave her shots without any make-up. A fleeting glimpse of her in a fight sequence was also a part of Kochadaiiyan teaser.
Deepika has even shot a full length action sequence with Rajinikanth. The scene is shot extensively in London, and the director’s supervisor claims that it will be lapped up by the frenzied fans.
