Shraddha Kapoor has reportedly hiked her acting fee to a whopping Rs. 15 crore for her upcoming 2026 film 'Eetha', a biographical drama directed by Laxman Utekar. Based on the life of legendary Marathi Tamasha artist Vithabai Narayangaonkar, Eetha marks a massive salary jump for the actress following the historic success of Stree 2.

Backed by producer Dinesh Vijan, the film is scheduled for a theatrical release on August 28, 2026, amid an ongoing title controversy raised by the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and Vithabai’s surviving family members.
