Sandeep Reddy Vanga's much-awaited film Spirit is currently making headlines. News related to this Prabhas-starrer is surprising fans every day. Just a few days ago, Deepika Padukone opted out of the film. But now another major update has surfaced. It is being said that veteran actor Prakash Raj has also exited this mega-project. Reports suggest that he had a heated argument with director Vanga, and then, due to creative differences with the makers, he decided to leave the film.

According to a report by OTTplay, Prakash Raj is no longer a part of Prabhas's Spirit. Initially, he was considered a key member of the cast, and his character was supposed to be quite powerful in the film's storyline. However, now there are rumors that things went sour on the set. According to reports, a heated argument broke out between Sandeep Reddy Vanga and Prakash Raj over the script of a scene and the way it was to be shot, which gradually escalated into bitterness.
Prakash Raj's argument with Sandeep Reddy Vanga?
The matter didn't stop at just an argument; it is also being said that the actor was not getting along well with the production team, due to which the team decided to distance themselves from him. There are also rumors that Prakash Raj's behavior with the production team was not very good, which was causing a lot of trouble for the team. Ultimately, the makers decided to remove him from the film. However, neither Prakash Raj nor the makers have issued any official statement regarding this news yet.
Deepika Padukone had also opted out of ‘Spirit’
This is not the first time an actor has left Prabhas's film Spirit. Earlier in 2024, when the news of Deepika Padukone leaving the film came out, fans were stunned. At the time, reports claimed that Deepika had put forward several conditions, including an 8-hour shift, a hefty fee, and a share in the film's profits, which director Sandeep Reddy Vanga did not agree with at all.

Sandeep Reddy Vanga's film will feature intense action.
It's worth noting that on New Year's Day, Sandeep Reddy Vanga created a stir on the internet by releasing the first poster of his film, Spirit. In the poster, Prabhas is seen with bandages on his injured back, while Tripti Dimri calmly lights his cigarette. This film, being made under the banners of T-Series and Bhadrakali Pictures, is written and directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga himself. It is a pan-India film that will feature a powerful blend of emotions and action.
