  "account": "Actor Yash, one of the highest-paid stars in India, earns significantly more than his Rs 50 crore per film rumors suggest. The reason behind this is his profit-sharing model with producers. Yash has been following this route for years, even before his blockbuster KGF franchise. He believes that producers would not pay him as much if his market value was not proven through successful films. Yash invests his own money, takes risks, and works hard, ensuring they both earn and lose together. His next release, Geethu Mohandas action thriller Toxic: A Fairytale for Grownups, boasts an over Rs 500 crore budget, nearly seven times KGF's budget of Rs 80 crore. Despite earning more, Yash maintains a humble lifestyle and continues to work hard for his audience.",
