Update on Spirit Movie Production
Deepika Padukone and Sandeep Reddy Vanga were set to collaborate for the first time in the upcoming film Spirit. However, within a few weeks, the deal fell through after the actress and the filmmaker reportedly had disagreements over remuneration and working hours.
New Cast and Schedule
Now Vanga has shared an update on the schedule of his upcoming film Spirit, led by Prabhas and Triptii Dimri, who replaced Deepika Padukone.
In a conversation with Vijay Deverakonda and filmmaker Gowtam Tinnanuri on the Sithara Entertainments channel on YouTube, Vanga shared that the production for Spirit is all set to roll in September.
He added that there are going to be back-to-back schedules and continuous shooting once the project begins.
Some reports also suggest that the music of the film has already been completed in collaboration with Harshavardhan Rameshwar.
Replacement and Controversies
Earlier, Deepika Padukone walked out of Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s much-anticipated film Spirit, after which Triptii Dimri was officially announced as the leading lady of the film.
Deepika Padukone was tagged as “unprofessional” for her demands, which included working for a 6-hour shift with a newborn at home and charging a massive fee of Rs 20 crore. She also refused to deliver her dialogues in Telugu.
Due to creative differences and “unreasonable” clauses, a replacement for Deepika Padukone was found.
Amid the wave of controversies, Sandeep Reddy Vanga has finally shared an update on the release. Production is all set to roll in September.
