Deepika Padukone Faces New Shock from Kalki 2898 AD Team

Hyderabad: The controversy surrounding Bollywood star Deepika Padukone and her association with the Kalki 2898 AD franchise seems far from over. Despite months passing since her reported exit from the sequel, new developments have once again placed the actress in the spotlight.

Back in September, the film’s producers had officially confirmed that Deepika would not be part of the Kalki sequel, citing what they described as “unprofessional demands.” The decision had sparked widespread discussion among fans and film industry circles alike.

Recently, the issue resurfaced after a Reddit post went viral, claiming that Deepika’s name was allegedly removed from the end credits of Kalki 2898 AD on major OTT platforms. Viewers pointed out that both Netflix and Prime Video versions of the film no longer displayed her name, leading to renewed debates online.

Screenshots and video clips showing the “altered” credits quickly spread across social media, with many calling the move “unnecessary” and “unprofessional.” The incident has reignited speculation about ongoing friction between Deepika and the film’s makers, adding another twist to an already heated controversy.
