I made a report using the google data studio in which the data source is connected via bigquery. If I apply a filter on the report, I can see a query executed with those filter conditions in my bigquery 'Query History'. The data consumed by those queries will also add up to my bill, right?

Everytime you change anything in a report (apply filter, interact with a chart, click refresh, etc) a new query is sent to BigQuery.

So the answer is yes, you pay for all queries sent to BigQuery.

You just don't pay for BigQuery cached data. So if DataStudio runs exactly the same query twice (supposing several users opening the dashboard and selecting the same filters), you'll be only charged once per each 24h timeframe.
