Arijit Singh Earns Duplex for Wedding Performance; AR Rahman Charges Rs 3 Crore for Live Gigs

Rapper Ikka Singh shared that Arijit Singh’s fee for performing at a single wedding was so substantial that he was able to purchase a duplex apartment in Mumbai with that income alone.

Arijit Singh’s fandom knows no bounds, and rappers Ikka Singh and Raftaar recently sat down to discuss the “Channa Mereya” singer’s simplicity despite his massive earnings. They highlighted how Arijit keeps his life hassle-free and avoids showing off his wealth. During their conversation, they revealed an interesting anecdote about Arijit’s earnings. They shared that his fee for performing at a single wedding was so substantial that he was able to purchase a duplex apartment in Mumbai with that income alone.

Speaking on Honestly Saying Podcast, Ikka shared, “The amount of money he (Arijit)) makes is crazy and the person he is. People in the music industry think of themselves as rich, they even look rich, this includes us, but Arijit can have 100 of us for lunch.” He compared Arijit’s grounded nature to that of international rapper Eminem, who, despite being one of the greatest rappers of all time, keeps his personal life simple and away from the public eye.

Talking further about Arijit, Ikka said, “He did a show once, he went out, his car was taking time to come. He sat in the auto in front of him and left for home. I will share another instance, he doesn’t like doing wedding performances, somebody insisted that he performs, in return, he took a duplex house in Mumbai. One should check how much a duplex house costs in Mumbai. He got that for 1-1.5 hour performance.
