The makers of Salman Khan's upcoming film SVC63 have officially dismissed recent reports about the superstar's remuneration. Sri Venkateswara Creations, the production house behind the film, issued an exclusive statement to Bollywood Hungama calling the claims completely false.
Producers Deny Salman Khan Remuneration Reports for SVC63
Recent reports claimed that Salman Khan had charged just Rs 70 crores for Vamshi Paidipally's upcoming action entertainer. The reports also alleged that the superstar, whose usual remuneration is said to exceed Rs 120 crores, had agreed to reduce his fee by nearly 40%.
According to Bollywood Hungama, the producers have categorically denied these claims in an exclusive statement.
Official Statement from Sri Venkateswara Creations on SVC63
The production house shared the following statement with Bollywood Hungama:
"We have come across several reports circulating regarding Salman Khan's remuneration for SVC63. We would like to categorically state that these reports are completely false and baseless. As producers, we do not comment on or disclose confidential business or financial arrangements." — Sri Venkateswara Creations via Bollywood Hungama
The makers also urged everyone to refrain from spreading such misinformation, emphasizing that the reports are "purely speculative and factually incorrect."
What This Means for the Film's Buzz
The clarification comes as anticipation builds around SVC63, which marks Salman Khan's collaboration with director Vamshi Paidipally. The film has been generating significant attention, and the remuneration controversy added unnecessary noise to the project's promotional momentum.
According to Bollywood Hungama's official X post, the exclusive statement was shared to set the record straight on the financial speculation surrounding the project.
Why Producers Avoid Discussing Star Fees
The statement highlights a common practice in the film industry — producers typically do not disclose financial details of talent contracts. This is standard protocol across major productions, as revealing such figures can create unnecessary comparisons and expectations.
As reported by Bollywood Hungama on Instagram, the makers have made it clear that such business arrangements remain confidential between the parties involved.
Our Take: Speculation Hurts the Industry
To put it plainly, this is a welcome clarification from the SVC63 team. Salary speculation in Bollywood often creates false narratives that benefit no one — not the actors, not the producers, and certainly not the audience.
The reports about Salman Khan taking a pay cut were presented as fact without any official confirmation. This is exactly why the producers' decision to issue a clear denial matters. It sets a precedent that unverified financial claims should not be treated as news.
For fans of Salman Khan, the takeaway is simple: enjoy the updates about the film itself, not the numbers attached to it. The makers have spoken, and the matter should now be put to rest.
