Spirit, a much-anticipated film featuring Prabhas and directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, is yet to go on floors but continues to generate buzz. Deepika Padukone was initially considered for the female lead, but the casting took a different turn.

However, due to her high remuneration demand of over ₹20 crore and her request to reduce shoot time post-motherhood, she was replaced.

Tripti Dimri was officially announced as the new heroine, much to fans' delight. According to reports, Tripti is being paid ₹4 crore for her role, marking a major milestone in her career.
