The Forbes India magazine released out the 2015 Celebrity 100 list and some of the stars who made it to the top 100 celebrities took everyone by surprise. One of them is Tamil comedy superstar Santhanam. The actor, with earnings of 45 crore, stood in the 52nd rank.
With this feat, Santhanam became the third richest Tamil star in 2015 after Kamal Haasan (51 crores) and Dhanush (42 crores). What’s more, Santhanam even surpassed leading Tamil stars Suriya (32 crores) and Arya (29 crores).
While Santhanam’s money wise rank was 17, fame wise he secured 91st position out of the 100 stars. Known for his rib-tickling comedy and sarcastic one liners, Santhanam charges anywhere between 7 to 15 lakhs per call sheet depending on the films’ budgets.
This payment is highest than any other comedian in the country. Apart from his earnings through acting, Santhanam amassed huge earnings through his home production, Inimey Ippadithaan.
