Sydney Sweeney approached for her Bollywood debut: Reports

Sydney Sweeney best known for her roles in Euphoria and The White Lotus, has been approached for a role in what is being billed as one of the most expensive films ever made in India.

The numbers being discussed are extraordinary. As reported by The Sun, a leading production company has put forward a deal worth around £45 million (over Rs 530 crore). The package reportedly combines a £35 million acting fee with an additional £10 million linked to sponsorships and brand tie-ins.

Producers are said to be hoping that Sydney’s global star power will not only add shine to the project but also help it capture audiences far beyond Indian shores.

If she signs on, Sydney is expected to play a young American actress who falls in love with a famous Indian celebrity. The story is set to unfold against a glamorous international backdrop, with filming slated for early 2026 across cities including New York, Paris, London and Dubai.

A source told The Sun: “Sydney was shocked by the offer at first, 45 million pound is an incredible sum. But the project is intriguing, and it could elevate her global profile even further. The Indian film industry is powerful and growing, and this movie is designed to bring its productions to the international market.”

The insider went on to add: “Nothing has been decided yet, but it’s a huge opportunity and Sydney is weighing her options carefully. Money isn’t everything, and she has many projects lined up, but this could push her to new limits as an actress.”

Her representatives, however, have yet to comment on the speculation.

Sydney Sweeney has quickly established herself as one of Hollywood’s most versatile young actors. Beyond her breakout turns in Euphoria and The White Lotus, she is set to appear in Christy, a biopic about professional boxer Christy Martin, the first female fighter to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated. Starring alongside Ben Foster and Merritt Wever, the film is scheduled for release on 7 November.

Adding to her growing influence, Sydney was also unveiled this July as the face of American Eagle’s new denim campaign, which cheekily played on her “great jeans.”
