Multiple reports say actor Deepika Padukone is not in talks to collaborate with filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga, and that the project is not part of her consideration in the first place. The outlets cite a “close source” saying “Spirit was never part of Deepika’s consideration set.”
The reporting also states that Deepika does not receive what would typically be a key step in negotiations: she reportedly does not get a full narration of the film. The claims suggest that discussions, if any, do not progress to the stage where she reviews a complete script or pitch.
Across the sources, the emphasis is consistent: the alleged misunderstanding is not about a final decision after negotiations, but about the absence of early consideration and a full narration. None of the provided articles include direct comments from Deepika Padukone or Vanga, and the information is attributed to unnamed sources.
