Prabhas, the pan-India superstar, is set to embark on another ambitious project that promises to be a massive box-office hit. Following the phenomenal success of his recent films, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ and ‘Salaar,’ Prabhas is now preparing for his next big venture, ‘Spirit,’ directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. This highly anticipated film is already creating a buzz, with reports suggesting that it could be another 1000 crore blockbuster.
‘Spirit’ to Begin Filming in January 2025
According to recent updates, the shooting for ‘Spirit’ is scheduled to begin in January 2025. Currently, the film is in the pre-production phase, with the team working hard to ensure everything is in place for the shoot. Fans are excited to see Prabhas in this new role, and expectations are high that the film will be a cinematic treat.
Double Role for Prabhas?
Rumors are swirling that Prabhas will take on a double role in ‘Spirit,’ adding an exciting twist to the film. In the first half of the movie, he is expected to portray a police officer, while in the second half, he will reportedly transform into the villain. However, these reports have not yet been confirmed by the filmmakers, keeping fans on their toes as they await official announcements.
Release Date and Expectations
Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who recently directed ‘Animal’ starring Ranbir Kapoor, is known for his unique storytelling style that often delves into dark and intense themes. He is expected to bring the same intensity to ‘Spirit,’ making it one of the most awaited films of the year. The film is set to release either at the end of 2025 or early 2026, and with the buzz surrounding it, it’s likely to be another major success for Prabhas.
A Pan-Asian Cinematic Experience
‘Spirit’ is being touted as a pan-Asian film, further elevating its appeal. With a storyline that promises to cross cultural boundaries, the film is expected to attract audiences not just in India but across Asia. This aspect of the film is generating significant excitement, as fans eagerly anticipate a truly global cinematic experience.
Mystery Surrounding the Lead Actress
While the film’s male lead is confirmed, there is still speculation about the female lead. Rashmika Mandanna and Keerthy Suresh were initially rumored to be in the running for the role, but recent reports suggest that the filmmakers have not yet finalized anyone. Additionally, there are whispers that Trisha Krishnan might be cast in a negative role, adding another layer of intrigue to the film. However, the producers have remained tight-lipped, leaving fans to guess who will eventually be cast.
A High-Budget Spectacle
‘Spirit’ is expected to be a high-budget film, with reports indicating that Sandeep Reddy Vanga has significantly increased his fee for this project. If rumors are true, Vanga could earn between Rs 125 to 150 crores for directing this film, potentially making him one of the highest-paid directors in the country. This hefty budget and the involvement of top-tier talent further cement ‘Spirit’ as a project to watch out for.
