On Friday, Rakesh shared a video addressing the rumours about receiving the Rs 1 crore bonus from Dhurandhar. He said, “I have been sent this video and approached by people that I have received Rs 1 crore from Dhurandhar, toh bhaiya woh kahan pada hai, kiske ghar mein rakha hai, kiski jeb mein hai mujhe bata do yaar, kahan kisi ne gaad ke rakha hai bata do taaki main jakar le loon kyunki mere account mein toh ab tak nahi aya hai, mere account mein toh show nahi kar raha hai.”

He added, “Aur aa gayi toh main bata doonga ya shayad na bhi bataoon ki bhai mujhe mil gaya hai, lekin filhaal toh nahi mila hai yaar. Agar aap dilwa sakte ho toh please dilwa do.”

What Did The Report Say?

According to a source, the report states that the makers were moved by Rakesh’s dedication. The source said, “Rakesh Bedi was paid Rs 50 lakhs for Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar The Revenge. After the release of the second part and its historic success, Aditya Dhar, who directed the films and is also one of the producers, along with his brother and partner Lokesh Dhar, handed him a cheque of Rs 1 crore. In short, it was double the fee he had charged for the franchise… With this gesture, he has also shown that he is a one-of-a-kind human being. It is rare for any producer to make such a generous move.”

Rakesh played the role of Pakistani politician Jameel Jamali. His character arc in the sequel struck a chord with audiences. Several of his scenes went viral on social media, with fans even turning his iconic line, “Baccha hai tu mera (You are my kid),” into memes.

Aditya Dhar’s two-part spy action thriller broke box office records. The first part, released in December 2025, became a blockbuster, grossing Rs 1300 crore worldwide. The second part, released on March 19, 2026, surpassed expectations, earning Rs 1760 crore globally. The franchise has now earned over Rs 3000 crore overall.
