Deepika Padukone NOT Dropped from Kalki 2, Sources Deny Fallout Rumours
Last Updated: Deepika Padukone has not been dropped from Kalki 2, say sources. The film is still in pre-production and casting has yet to begin. No on-set fallout occurred. Amid swirling rumours that Deepika Padukone has been dropped from Kalki 2, sources close to the film have categorically denied any such development. The buzz, which gained traction online over the past few days, claimed that Deepika had a fallout with the film's team and co-star Prabhas—a claim insiders are now calling 'completely baseless." The truth? Kalki 2 hasn't even begun filming yet. According to sources, the much-anticipated sequel is still in the pre-production phase and no official casting has been locked in. 'They haven't even approached actors because it's still in development," a source told NDTV, debunking the theory that Deepika was dropped due to 'on-set friction." As another insider pointed out, 'There's been no shoot, no interaction, and therefore, no fallout." The speculation appears to be an extension of earlier reports involving Deepika's exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's upcoming film Spirit. Rumours suggested the actor had demanded 8-hour workdays, a higher salary, and a share in profits—conditions that reportedly did not sit well with the filmmaker. Adding fuel to the fire, Vanga shared cryptic posts on X (formerly Twitter) criticizing actors for wanting 'luxury," which many assumed was a dig at Deepika. The situation escalated when Triptii Dimri, fresh off her success in Animal, was announced as the lead in Spirit. While Dimri confirmed her casting with a grateful Instagram post, the timing led many to conclude that Deepika had been replaced. As for Kalki 2, no such decision has been made. The rumour mill may be churning overtime, but for now, Deepika's involvement remains a matter of speculation—one not supported by any official word or concrete development. Until the film moves forward, one thing remains clear: there's no drama where there's no shoot. First Published: June 06, 2025, 16:14 IST

The actor was seen wearing a red t-shirt and a cap from his clothing brand ARKS as he directed the photographers to take pictures from a certain angle and then later posed for pictures with some of them.

A Look At Shraddha Kapoor's ‘Gupshup, Khana Aur Khandan' Moment
Last Updated: Shraddha Kapoor was seen hanging around with her cousins. When she's not caught up with work, Shraddha Kapoor enjoys spending quality time with her 'khandan". The actress had a delightful Wednesday with her cousin Priyaank Sharma, his wife Shaza Morani, and aunt Tejaswini Kolhapure. We got a glimpse of their warm family reunion through a heartwarming Instagram post shared by Tejaswini. The photo captures the group gathered around a dining table, radiating love and togetherness. And don't miss Shraddha, sweetly cradling an adorable furry companion in her arms. Shraddha Kapoor looked stylish in a black tank top and classic blue denim jeans. On the other hand, Priyaank and Shaza sported comfy looks, perfect for a family get-together. Tejaswini went for a minimal approach as she flaunted her natural charm in an olive green top. In her caption of the post, she wrote, 'Gupshup khana aur khandan." In an earlier chat with Pinkvilla, Tejaswini Kolhapure heaped praises on her darling niece Shraddha, revealing the actress was very aloof as a child. She said, 'She was a very cute baby, and we used to call her Lolly as she used to look like one. She didn't even like anyone pulling her cheeks. But she has blossomed into this lovely, beautiful girl, who is so concerned about everybody, always reaching out and being very inclusive." Speaking of Shraddha Kapoor's acting endeavours, the actress has been ruling the Internet after the smashing success of Stree 2. Recently, she made headlines for exiting Ekta Kapoor's new project due to a payment dispute. Rumours swirling around suggested that she was demanding Rs 17 crore plus a share of the profits. According to a report by PeepingMoon, the actress decided to opt out of the film after a disagreement between her and Ekta, who was not happy with the proposed compensation, especially for a women-centric project. The producer feared it might affect the entire budget and would not be profitable. Backed by Ekta Kapoor, the film will be directed by Rahi Anil Barve. The details of this 'high-concept thriller' have been kept under wraps. Meanwhile, Shraddha currently has Stree 3 lined up in her kitty. Scheduled to release on 13 August 2027, the film also stars Rajkummar Rao, Aparshakti Khurana, Pankaj Tripathi and Abhishek Banerjee. First Published:
