Well, she's apparently been paid nearly Rs 1 crore for the ad shoot and oh boy, that's a huge sum for any newcomer. “She shot for the commercial on Friday morning at Film City. It was a heavily guarded shoot, as it marks her debut in the national ad-space. We have been informed that she has been paid around Rs 1 crore to endorse the brand. That’s a huge sum for a newcomer,” a brand expert revealed to the daily.

Well, it won't be wrong to say that her popularity on social media is increasing with each passing day. Her Instagram followers too reached 6.2 million at an alarming rate and it didn't take long for her to earn the blue certified tick. Her video on Instagram has garnered more than 14 million views. In fact, she became the third fastest celebrity to garner over 600k followers after the social media star Kylie Jenner herself and footballer Christiano Ronaldo.
Meanwhile, there were also reports of her being cast opposite Rohit Shetty's Simmba. Now with that not materialising, we wonder if she has any plans to make her Bollywodd debut soon.
