Stars & Salaries

I was reading a issue of last month kumudam, which lists our Tamil Stars Salary as below:

• Ajith: 300 (In Lakhs)
• Vijay: 400
• Kamal: 500
• Rajni: 2000

I dont understand what Vijay does to be just a little lower than our talented Kamalhassan, but lets just talk about the salaries. Even the lowest salary in the list will buy a small flat in world's most expensive cities. Remember, its one flat per movie.

Keanu Reeves was paid only $10Million for Matrix, but Rajni gets $4.5Million. But Tamil films are made in average of 3 months, whereas Hollywood films take almost a year to complete. Does that mean we make more money than most hollywood? May be ..

Vadivel's salary is 25lac per day, and if he manages to have his callsheets filled up for a whole month(not difficult for him these days), he makes 750lac per month, which is $1.6M per month ??

The president of the University where I graduated from,(not the highest in list) makes around $4Million a year, which is not too bad a comparison with a hollywood actor. The highest salary in Hollywood is around $25Million and 4Million is 6times less than that. But the highest salary any President of a University in India per year; It may never exceed 20lac?? which is 100times in magnitude lower than Rajni's (quarterly) salary??

We have a lot like this in India which others have already mentioned & blogged abt...

I am just adding one more point to these notes.
