Mumbai: After impressing audience with their impactful chemistry in ‘Kalki 2898 AD’, Deepika Padukone and Prabhas are set to reunite in ‘Animal’ fame Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s ‘Spirit.’
Pinkvilla reported that Deepika has signed to star opposite Prabhas in the upcoming film.
“Initially, Spirit was to begin by the end of 2024 and hence, Deepika had turned down the offer, as the timelines were not matching due to her pregnancy. However, with a delay in schedule, Vanga went back to Deepika with a revised shooting timeline, and the actress has now agreed to come on board Spirit,” a source told Pinkvilla.
“It’s the most well-written female part in the world of Sandeep Reddy Vanga. Deepika was surprised with the nuances in not just the script, but also her character. She has loved the part, and is excited to team up with Sandeep Reddy Vanga for the first time,” the source added.
Shooting for ‘Spirit’ is likely to begin in October as the film is in the final stages of scripting.
Bankrolled by T-series and Bhadrakali pictures, the film is expected to hit screens in 2027.
