Meanwhile, the reported earnings of the lead actors and key technicians have caught the attention of film buffs.

Suriya, Nazriya, and Naslen's 'Scene' salary revealed

As per the report by Filmibeat, Suriya has been paid Rs 15 crore for his role as DSP Inbaraj. It is reported that Suriya might receive a 40% profit share in the movie, but this information has not yet been confirmed. The actress Nazriya Nazim has reportedly been paid Rs 3 crore, while Naslen has been paid Rs 1 crore for his debut in the Tamil film industry.

Anandraj reportedly received Rs 80 lakh, Lal Rs 60 lakh and Raj Priyan Rs 40 lakh from the movie.

Jithu Madhavan and Sushin Shyam's fees for the 'Scene'

Director Jithu Madhavan reportedly earned Rs 5 crore, while music director Sushin Shyam is said to have asked for Rs 1.5 crore for the film. Cinematographer Vineeth Augustian reportedly received Rs 80 lakh, while editor Ajmal Sabu's fee is estimated at Rs 60 lakh. According to the published figures, the combined earnings of the six listed actors and four technical crew members total Rs 28.70 crore.

Suriya reportedly has the highest individual fee among the film's cast and crew.

'Scene' vs 'Mookuthi Amman 2'

'Scene' faces competition from Nayanthara's Mookuthi Amman 2, which also arrived in theatres today, November 6. Both films target family audiences during the festive weekend, making the box office competition interesting. Popularity of Suriya, the past success of Jithu Madhavan’s movies, and fascination with Nayanthara's Tamil debut may help ‘Scene’ attract a large audience. However, ‘Mookuthi Amman 2’ gets its strengths from that of its successful film series and Nayanthara's fame.DISCLAIMER: Figures presented in this article are derived from various public sources and are considered approximate unless explicitly noted.
