Mirai, the Teja Sajja starrer fantasy action drama, is unstoppable at the box office. Released on September 12, the film has crossed the Rs 55-crore mark at the domestic box office and the numbers are not looking to slow down anytime soon. Directed by Karthik Gattamneni, the film garnered positive responses, especially for its technical aspects, particularly the stunning visuals, background music and engaging narrative.
As the film continues to win hearts, a recent report suggests the remuneration of actors, including Teja Sajja for Mirai.
How Much Were The Actors Paid For Mirai?
According to 123Telugu, South actor Manchu Manoj, who played the main antagonist Mahabir Lama, aka Black Sword, has received the maximum salary from team Mirai for his role in the film. Reportedly, the actor was paid a sum of Rs 3 crore for his dramatic portrayal as a villain.
Teja Sajja, on the other hand, played Vedha, the warrior who was destined to save the planet. The HanuMan actor reportedly received Rs 2 crore for his performance in the film.
Apart from Teja and Manoj, Mirai featured Ritika Nayak as the female, playing Vibha, a sanyasi who mentors Vedha. The actress reportedly received a salary of Rs 50 lakh for her role.
Adding to the list is actress Shriya Saran, who also received a paycheque of nearly Rs 2 crore for her part in the film. Despite having limited screen time, stars Jagapathi Babu and Jayaram played crucial roles in the film. While Jagapathi was paid Rs 1.5 crore for his performance, Jayaram is alleged to have been given Rs 80 lakh.
However, an official confirmation from the makers about the final paycheque of the cast members is still awaited.

Mirai explores the story of Vedha (Teja Sajja), a young man destined to protect the world from the dark sorcerer Mahabir Lama (Manchu Manoj), who seeks Emperor Ashoka’s nine sacred scriptures to achieve world domination. Inspired by the legend of Ashoka’s Nine Unknown Men, the film is a fantasy adventure that blends ancient Indian mythology and folklore with modern superhero storytelling. Vedha’s journey involves uncovering his own mysterious past and fulfilling a prophecy to safeguard humanity.
