Tollywood director Sandeep Reddy Vanga is set to embark on a new cinematic journey with India's iconic superstar, Prabhas, in a film titled Spirit. Recently, a teaser for the movie was unveiled on the occasion of Prabhas' birthday, generating significant excitement not only within the Tollywood community but also among Bollywood enthusiasts.
In the weeks following the teaser's release, a rumor circulated suggesting that the legendary Megastar Chiranjeevi would portray Prabhas' father in Spirit. This speculation was addressed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga during an interaction with the Jigris team, where he clarified that Chiranjeevi would not be participating in the film in any capacity. This statement effectively quashed the circulating misconceptions surrounding the casting.
When queried about speculation regarding South Korean actor Don Lee potentially playing the antagonist, Sandeep Reddy Vanga maintained a coy stance, neither confirming nor denying the actor's involvement. This ambiguous response has fueled further speculation among fans, many of whom now anticipate the possibility of Don Lee joining the cast.
Scheduled to commence filming in February 2026, Spirit is already generating buzz with its grand ambitions. The ceremonial pooja muhurat for the film is anticipated to take place this month, marking the official start of the production process. The film is being produced on a large scale by Bhadrakali Pictures in collaboration with T-Series, extending its reach with planned releases in various international languages.
The romantic interest opposite Prabhas will be played by the talented actress Triptii Dimri, who gained notoriety for her role in the film Animal. Further details regarding the supporting cast are expected to be revealed soon. Notably, the music for this eagerly awaited film will be composed by Harshavardhan Rameshwar, promising an alluring soundtrack to complement the visual experience.
As fans eagerly await additional announcements and the official commencement of filming, Spirit holds immense promise in becoming a landmark production within Indian cinema.
