Prabhas is set for a busy period with several films in the pipeline. Among these, the sequel to ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ is highly anticipated, especially after the first part’s global success, which earned over 1000 crore. However, the news of Deepika Padukone’s departure has caused concern among fans.
The reasons behind Deepika Padukone’s exit from the movie are being debated. Some claim it was because of high salary demands, while others say her role was reduced. Her departure from the film is a significant loss. Consequently, fans have been speculating about who will replace her.
Following Deepika’s exit, the primary question is who will take over her role. While some fans are disappointed, others have suggested potential replacements. The filmmakers haven’t made an announcement yet, but an actress is expected to be finalized soon to star opposite Prabhas. One name that is circulating the most on social media is Anushka Shetty. Fans believe her inclusion would inject a new dynamic into the film.
If Anushka Shetty is cast, fans can expect to witness her chemistry with Prabhas. The two actors have worked together in the ‘Baahubali’ franchise. The first part of the franchise earned around 650 crore worldwide. It will be interesting to see what the makers decide.
Previously, Deepika Padukone was offered ‘Spirit’ alongside Prabhas but didn’t agree to work for 8 hours, which stirred social media. After Tripti Dimri was cast, Vanga made remarks about negative PR against Dimri.
