Recently, we've watched various dance routines from films with popular heroes, and they all include the same star heroine. Many people ask if these songs are worth the hype, but while the popularity of the song is determined by the music, the production of such a song costs a fortune.

Even after the actors' fees are deducted, each of these songs is claimed to have cost the producers approximately 2.5 crores. To begin with, these songs contain some vivid settings that cost somewhere between 90-100 lakhs, including art setups, studio leases, and production costs. Simultaneously, the choreographers are alleged to charge approximately ten lakhs for these dance performances. Only the expense of bringing in overseas and Mumbai-based dancers who are sleek, thin, and seductive is believed to be about 90+ lakhs. While each dancer is paid $10,000 each day, the whole cost for 3-4 days, including flights, lodging, and meals, adds up to a sizable budget.

If we include additional costs such as clothing, designer fees, caravan leases, personnel and supplies, and other unspecified expenses, the complete song cost close to 2-2.5 crores, according to a prominent producer's statement. In the end, if the music doesn't succeed, this investment is pointless, but the creators believe that if they don't spend this much, the song won't appear enticing. That's how commercial movie is right now!
