However, the status of the film to be a hit or a flop was to be decided by YRF. Shuddh Desi Romance was the first film of Sushant Singh Rajput, for which he was paid 30 lakh rupees. The actor worked opposite Vaani Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra in Shuddh Desi Romance. Detective Byomkesh Bakshi was the second film of the contract, and he was paid one crore rupees for it. However, it is still not sure whether he was paid one crore rupees for it or not because the contract itself says that he would be paid 60 lakh for the second film.
