The Kantara franchise has been a big success, and Kannada actor and filmmaker Rishab Shetty is now a superstar all throughout India. Rishab directed and starred in two big hits that not only earned wonderful reviews but also generated a lot of money at the box office. Kantara's achievement made him much more valuable in the market. People say that the actor split the earnings with Hombale Films, which only made his reputation as a filmmaker who knows both movies and business stronger.

Rishab Shetty has gotten a lot of offers from many sectors since the franchise went well, especially from Telugu film. The actor has now formally agreed to work on two blockbuster Telugu movies. This is a major step for him because it signifies he's moving away from Kannada movies. But his demands for salary have become a hot topic in the corporate world.

An article on Telugu360 suggests that Rishab Shetty has changed his mind about sharing profits on his forthcoming projects and is now demanding a big fee of Rs 80 crore for each one. An official response is awaited. People say they are astonished by this decision because he has been involved in back-end deals in the past. Top production firms seem to be sure that he can attract people and tell a decent tale, even though he costs a lot.

One of his most major forthcoming projects is Jai Hanuman, which is directed by Prasanth Varma and made by Mythri Movie Makers. The movie is expected to be a major thing because Rishab is known for being a great actor and having a strong connection to mythology. He has also agreed to do a periodic drama with Sithara Entertainments. Ashwin Gangaraju, who is known for his work on Akhandha, would be in charge of directing it. Both movies are in the pre-production stage right now.
