Jaffer Sadiq Kollywood and India’s highest-grossing actor in 2023 – grosses Rs 1800 crore;
The year 2023 has been a good one for the Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam film industries.
Although films like Jailer, Leo, and 2018 broke box office records, others like Virupaksha and Viduthalai Part 1 garnered praise for their content.
Several stars and superstars came out with big films that minted money. And yet, when it comes to the top-grossing south star of the year, it is someone completely unexpected, a 28-year-old choreographer-turned-actor, whose films outdid all others.
Jaffer Sadiq, a young actor known for comic and negative roles in blockbusters, has emerged as the top-grossing south Indian actor of the year, beating superstars Rajinikanth, Thalapathy Vijay, Prabhas, and Vijay Sethupathi.
The actor managed this by doing supporting roles in two of the biggest blockbusters of the year – Jailer and Jawan.
He was also in a supporting role in Voice of Satyanathan. Together, these films gave him a haul of Rs 1800 crore at the box office. Granted he did not achieve this as a lead but it is no mean feat nonetheless.
