Actor Vivek Sinha, who garnered significant attention for his portrayal of a terrorist in the blockbuster Dhurandhar franchise, has finally addressed the swirling rumors regarding his acting fees. Taking to Instagram on Friday, the actor released a video statement to debunk claims that he received a paycheck ranging from ₹60 lakh to ₹1 crore for his role in the films.
Sinha expressed his gratitude for the overwhelming love fans have shown him but urged social media pages to stop spreading misinformation about his wealth. The actor revealed that these inflated figures have led to a surge in messages from people seeking financial help, putting him in an awkward position. “Brother, I haven’t received that much money, I swear. Don’t post these things,” he clarified in the video.
While Sinha admitted that he was paid well and received the amount he expected for the project, he was quick to add that the funds have already been exhausted. Citing the high cost of living in Mumbai, he explained that his earnings from the film have already been spent on daily expenses and maintaining his lifestyle in the city. “I live in Mumbai, and there are many expenses here. So all the money from Dhurandhar is over,” he stated candidly.
The actor concluded his message with a request for prayers rather than loan requests. He promised his followers that if he eventually earns the kind of massive wealth being reported by the media, he would genuinely love to help those in need. Despite the financial clarification, Sinha continues to ride a wave of professional success following his standout performance in Dhurandhar Parts 1 and 2.
