Priyanka Chopra is among the world’s 10 highest paid television actresses. If you are wondering how much she has earned, here is the answer…
In the 14 years since Priyanka Chopra made her Bollywood debut in The Hero: Love Story of a Spy, she’s managed to do just that, becoming a household name both in India and the U.S.
With film projects in both Hollywood and Bollywood, as well as a starring role on a broadcast show and a handful of lucrative endorsements, Chopra has managed to parlay that fame into quite the paycheck.
She banked $10 million between June 1, 2016 and June 1, 2017, making her Bollywood’s seventh highest-paid star.
The actress recently walked out of Salman Khan’s Bharat for compensation issues.
It was earlier reported that PeeCee left the project because of her wedding with American musician Nick Jonas, but reports later said that Priyanka was being paid an amount of Rs 6 crore for the film, which the actress considered way less given her current stature.
Quantico made Priyanka Chopra a household name beyond the borders of India and Bollywood. The actress bagged her first Hollywood project while working on Quantico.
The film Baywatch, which hit the screens in 2017, earned largely negative reviews, but Priyanka’s role was appreciated by critics and fans alike.
Back in Bollywood, Priyanka now has Shonali Bose’s The Sky Is Pink with Zaira Wasim and Farhan Ahktar. The actress chose the film over Salman-starrer Bharat.
Along with films in both Bollywood and Hollywood, Priyanka is the ambassador of a shampoo brand and a clothing brand, both of which added to her earnings last year.
According to Forbes, Chopra earned about USD 11 million (Rs 77 crore) in 2017. After taxes, she took home a salary of USD 8 million (Rs 56 crore).
