Farzi Budget
It is estimated that Farzi had a budget of 150 Crores for the season with the estimated salary for Vijay Sethupati being 55 Crores and Shahid Kapoor getting 40 Crores. Interestingly it is rumored that Shahid’s salary will go up each season which is why his starting salary is this while Vijay’s salary is flat and will be the same in all seasons.
