Meanwhile, the latest buzz among a section of Bollywood media is that Rajamouli was paid Rs 10 crore to promote Brahmastra in Telugu and other Southern states. If the news is to be believed, Rajamouli’s name even worked well for Brahmastra by overtaking the online Boycott trend in the North belt also and the amount paid to the India’s biggest director is quite less compared to the revenues the film has been generating at the ticket windows. To date, Brahmastra has collected more than Rs 150 crore nett at the domestic box office including all languages.
