Here’s The Real Reason Why Deepika Left Spirit

There have been many rumors about why Deepika Padukone exited Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s film Spirit starring Prabhas.

Reports claimed that she was replaced due to “unreasonable demands” like wanting limited working hours. However, the real reason is now out.

A source close to the project revealed that Deepika actually liked the script and role in Spirit. The team had even started working on the contract.

But just a week later she received another offer, a film directed by Atlee, starring Allu Arjun, and she liked that project even more.

Since she couldn’t manage both films at the same time, Deepika decided to step away from Spirit. She mentioned reasons like work hours and payment, but the truth is she simply preferred the Atlee-Allu Arjun film.

Sandeep Vanga had no issue with her concerns. Deepika had already worked with Prabhas in Kalki so working with Allu Arjun is a new and exciting opportunity.
