De De Pyaar De 2 cast fees: A fresh wave of buzz has surrounded De De Pyaar De 2 as the cast’s remuneration has finally been revealed ahead of the film’s theatrical release on 14 November. The rom-com sequel, directed by Anshul Sharma, has been produced by Bhushan Kumar and Krishan Kumar under T-Series, along with Luv Ranjan and Ankur Garg of Luv Films.

The film brings back Ajay Devgn and Rakul Preet Singh as Ashish Mehra and Ayesha Khurana, continuing their unlikely age-gap romance that first won audiences over in 2019.

According to reports, Ajay Devgn has emerged as the highest-paid actor in the film. The superstar, who reprises his role as Ashish, has reportedly charged a massive Rs 40 crore. His presence has been positioned as the central commercial anchor of the sequel, especially as the story once again revolves around Ashish attempting to impress Ayesha’s family while navigating awkward and humorous situations born from their age difference.

Rakul Preet Singh, who plays Ayesha Khurana, has been paid Rs 4.5 crore for the film. Her character’s journey carries forward from the first instalment, with her chemistry with Ajay Devgn expected to be one of the sequel’s key highlights.

Meanwhile, R Madhavan, who joins the cast as Ayesha’s father, has charged Rs 9 crore for the role. Despite being a celebrated actor across industries, his fee remains significantly lower than Ajay’s, though his inclusion has added considerable excitement around the project. His comic timing and dramatic presence are expected to play a crucial part in the sequel’s family-centric narrative.

Other cast members have also taken home sizeable paycheques. Jaaved Jaaferi, noted for his humour and screen presence, has reportedly charged between Rs 2- 3 crore. Gautami Kapoor, who features in an important supporting role, has received Rs 1 crore.

De De Pyaar De 2 is directed by Anshul Sharma and was released on November 14. Produced by Luv Ranjan, Bhushan Kumar, Ankur Garg, Krishan Kumar, the sequel also introduces new characters played by R Madhavan, Meezaan Jafri and Gautami Kapoor, adding more layers to the story’s chaotic family dynamics.
