A Pinkvilla exclusive report states that the 32-year-old actor has been signed for a whopping amount for the Remo D'Souza-directed Street Dancer 3D.

His films usually work tremendously well on TV and the makers are also reaping huge benefits of the same."
Pinkvilla reports that the makers are in talks to sell the satellite rights of the movie to a prime television channel and a share of the TV deal will be added to Varun's fee: "They plan to sell the satellite rights to a leading channel for an unbelievable price and the channel is okay with it because Varun promises great viewership on the small screen too. The actor has got a signing amount of Rs 10-11 crore and the remaining remuneration will be given to him from the money the producers make from the satellite and digital rights."
