Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar has reportedly signed a film with Reliance and will be paid nearly Rs. 50 cr. If industry sources are to be believed, the Khiladi’s estimated pay for his latest film, which is a remake of south film Thupakki, will also make him the highest paid actor in B-Town, far ahead of Shah Rukh and Salman.
Recently, fans of Akshay Kumar got the hash tag #Akshay2000crore to trend worldwide for two days, suggesting that the actor has earned a whooping Rs 2000 cr in his lifetime in Hindi cinema.
While the news of his assets was left unconfirmed, an emotional Akshay Kumar thanked his fans, whom he fondly referred to as “Akkians”. "Honestly blessed to have you all Akkians in my life. Special thanks to my fan clubs who support me so much selflessly time & again. Thank you for the #Akshay2000crore tag only possible coz of you all," he tweeted.
The trend started on February 16 and was taken off on Monday. It was one of the top trends in India. Akshay is riding on both the box office success and the critical acclaim of his latest film Special 26 that also starred Anupam Kher and Manoj Bajpayee. It is learnt that the film's production company, Viacom 18 Motion Pictures, is keen to carry the heist tale forward into not only a sequel, but an ongoing franchise.

While Special 26 is doing well at the box office, 2012, too, was a successful year for the star with blockbusters like Housefull 2, Rowdy Rathore and Khiladi 786.
Housefull 2 and Rowdy Rathore joined the 100 crore club making him one of the most bankable actors for producers.
