Anil Kapoor, who also played a prominent role in the movie, charged Rs 15 crore for ‘Fighter’. Hrithik, reportedly, charges between Rs 75 crore to Rs 100 crore for his movies.

In ‘Fighter’, Hrithik plays a patriotic Squadron Leader Shamsher Pathania, also known as Patty, who shares a romantic relationship with Minnal Rathore (Minnie). The aerial action drama was banned in the Gulf countries, except in the United Arab Emirates, due to its alleged ‘Islamophobic’ sentiments and anti-Pakistan statements.
