When the majority of actors get paid before the release of the movie or have a fixed amount as their renumeration, actors like Dileep, Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan are paid according to the success of the movie. ���I pledge on a particular area where the movie is scheduled to be released with a producer. When the movie hits all the theatres in that particular area, and if it manages to reap profit, I get paid accordingly,��� explains Dileep.
At the end of the day, this will only benefit the producer. ���I get no money from my producer. These days, producers encourage this business dealing, as this will rid them from any sort of worries or tensions,��� adds Dileep, whose payment for Jose Thomas��� hit movie
Mayamohini was based on this system. Rumour mills are abuzz that the actor received a huge amount when
Mayamohini managed to make it to the box office hit list. It ran for about 100 days at major release centres. Dileep was appreciated for his efforts in donning the female role in the movie.
