Priyanka Chopra’s Grand Comeback to Bollywood: Becomes Highest-Paid Actress

Mumbai: After conquering Hollywood, Priyanka Chopra is making a sensational return to Bollywood, and this time, she’s setting records not just with her performances but also with her paycheck.
According to Indian media reports, the “Desi Girl” has signed two major projects — SSMB 29 and Krrish 4 — and has become the highest-paid actress in Bollywood. Sources reveal that Priyanka is being paid a whopping ₹30 crore for superstar Mahesh Babu’s film SSMB 29. For Krrish 4, her remuneration is also estimated to be between ₹20 to ₹30 crore.
There are also speculations that instead of a fixed fee, she may opt for a profit-sharing model — a growing trend among A-list actors.
Krrish 4 is creating a buzz on a different level altogether. Fans are thrilled to see Priyanka and Hrithik Roshan reunite on screen, as their chemistry has always been a fan favorite. Directed by Hrithik Roshan himself, the film promises state-of-the-art VFX, a gripping storyline, and the return of the beloved alien character “Jadoo,” which is sure to excite long-time fans of the franchise.
The Krrish series played a major role in establishing Hrithik Roshan as a superstar, and Krrish 4 is expected to hit theaters in 2026. With ample time before shooting begins, the team is focusing on perfecting the screenplay and creating spectacular visual effects.
