Social media users have been debating and speculating wildly about actress Deepika Padukone's rumored departure from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit in recent days. The actor's 'unprofessional' demands, one of which was that she wouldn't work more than eight hours a day, were the reason for her departure, according to a number of unidentified sources. When asked to comment on this at the trailer launch of Maa, actor Ajay Devgn has now expressed his support for Deepika in the issue.

What Ajay Devgn Stated

The trailer for Maa, the upcoming horror thriller starring Kajol in the main role, was launched with Ajay in attendance. He is a film co-producer. "It's not that it's not going down well with people," Ajay responded when a journalist questioned him about the 8-hour shift demands that have been circulating on social media since Deepika's rumored departure from Spirit. The majority of sincere filmmakers will not be negatively impacted. Additionally, in addition to being a mother and working eight hours a day, the majority of individuals have begun working eight to nine hour shifts.

"It's person to person, and I feel most of the industry understands this," he continued.

About the controversy

Deepika earlier this year, Prabhas and Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit had been signed. After Kalki 2898 AD, which also starred Prabhas, this was the actor's second pan-Indian Telugu film. But it was said last week that when her requests were rejected, she quit the movie. The subject has not spoken out on the issue. It was subsequently formally revealed that Triptii Dimri has been cast in the movie alongside Prabhas. Sandeep Reddy Vanga previously collaborated with Triptii in Animal.

Then, Sandeep Reddy Vanga revealed on X that the movie's screenplay had been leaked to the press. He wrote, "When I narrate a story to an actor, I place 100% faith," while also calling out foul PR tricks without naming them. There is an unspoken NDA between us. However, by doing this, you have "DISCLOSED" who you are. Are you a feminist who supports putting down a Younger actor and ousting my story?

T-Series and Bhadrakali Pictures are the producers of Spirit. Prabhas will play a hard-hitting, stern police officer. The movie is scheduled to start filming in 2025 and is now in pre-production.
