Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja is enjoying a career-defining run with Irumudi, directed by Shiva Nirvana. The film has reportedly received strong audience response and is performing exceptionally well at the box office. With collections said to have crossed ₹180 crore, the movie is now racing towards the ₹200-crore mark, potentially becoming Ravi Teja’s first film to reach that milestone.
What has grabbed even more attention is the actor’s reported remuneration strategy. Instead of taking his usual fee of around ₹10–15 crore, Ravi Teja is said to have opted for a profit-oriented arrangement, reflecting his confidence in the project. The decision reportedly involved taking the Telangana theatrical rights in lieu of his acting remuneration.
The gamble appears to have paid off spectacularly after Irumudi turned into a major commercial success. Industry circles are reportedly estimating that Ravi Teja could earn around ₹50 crore in share from the Telangana rights alone. If the figures hold, the deal could become one of the biggest financial wins of his career.
However, these numbers remain unconfirmed for now. Neither Ravi Teja’s team nor production house Mythri Movie Makers has officially announced details of his remuneration or the reported Telangana rights arrangement. Still, the buzz surrounding the deal has made Ravi Teja’s business decision one of the hottest talking points in Tollywood.
