Couple Samantha Akkineni and Naga Chaitanya to charge this whopping amount for reuniting on screen

The movie is an intense love story directed by Shiva Nirvana

Samantha Akkineni and Naga Chaitanya are one of the most adorable couples of the Southern film industry. Since their dreamy wedding in Goa in 2017, fans have been eagerly waiting for their reunion on screen.  

And, it seems that their wishes have been fulfilled as two days ago ChaiSam announced that they are teaming up for Shiva Nirvana's project which is a love story. This might have made you jump out of joy but let us tell you about the rumour that is doing the rounds. The latest development is that the duo has charged Rs 7 crore for their comeback movie.

A report in Bollywoodlife.com claims that Samantha charges Rs 1- Rs 1.5 crore for a single film, while Chaitanya's fee is around Rs 3-4 crore. However, basking in the popularity, the duo has decided to hike their charges. They know that they are reuniting after four years and fans can't contain their excitement of watching them on screen.

In an interview with Times of India, director Shiva Nirvana said: It's an intense love story and I wrote the script keeping Chay and Sam in mind. In fact, before I began narrating the script, I told Chaitanya, "Samantha heroine character chesthe next level ki veluthundi movie. (If Sam plays the female lead, the movie will go to the next level). Chaitanya loved the script and so did Sam." Shiva shot to fame with his debut film Ninnu Kori starring Nivetha Thomas and Aadhi in titular roles. 

Samantha and Naga Chaitanya's Manam and Ye Maaya Chesave created magic at the box office. The duo was last seen in Autonagar Surya.
