Did Deepika Padukone's Rs 25 crore fee and 10 per cent profit share demand lead to her exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's 'Spirit'? Here's what we know

's sudden departure from 's highly anticipated film 'Spirit', starring , sparked a flurry of speculation last month. The buzz began when reports suggested that the actress had demanded an 8-hour workday, a profit-sharing clause, and remuneration to the tune of Rs 20 crore, which was not acceptable to the makers. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now New reports now claim that the issue escalated when Deepika asked for Rs 25 crore and a 10 per cent profit share. Deepika demanded Rs 25 crore and a 10 per cent profit share According to News18, a source close to the production revealed that Deepika's team is struggling to come to terms with her replacement and is conveniently spinning her exit as a 'work-life balance' decision. 'The actor had reportedly demanded Rs 25 crore for approximately 35 days of shoot, along with a 10% profit share, extensive entourage expenses, and even expressed unwillingness to deliver dialogues in Telugu — something the director felt strongly about. To top it off, confidential plot details from Spirit were allegedly leaked, which raised serious concerns among the producers,' the source revealed. Deepika Padukone and Tiger Shroff at Mumbai Airport Deepika's 8 hour workday demand was never an issue The source further added that Deepika's 8-hour workdays were not a sticking point, although it has now gained attention. 'In filmmaking, working hours are fluid and depend on location, lighting, and various technical factors. You could shoot for 2 hours or 8, depending on the scene. What truly matters is flexibility, collaboration, and respect for the craft,' the source added. Refused to deliver dialogue in Telugu The question of dialogue delivery also became a point of contention. Reddy Vanga reportedly places high value on actors delivering their own lines to preserve the emotional integrity of a scene. The insider also criticised the wider narrative being shaped in the media around work-life balance without knowing the facts. They called it unfair, as it fails to understand the repercussions a production or director can face. 'It's about unreasonable demands, lack of adaptability, and unprofessional conduct,' they stated. Triptii Dimri 's entry Following Deepika's unexpected exit, Sandeep announced Triptii Dimri as the new leading lady of Spirit. He also shared a cryptic note on his social media, calling out the integrity of 'feminism' and 'dirty PR games.'

India's highest paid actress, second most followed celebrity investor, yet no Bollywood film in 5 years- Find out who

At a time when equal pay in the film industry is still a hot topic, this actress has broken barriers by out-earning many of her male counterparts with a staggering ₹ 30 crore fee for her upcoming film. She's also emerged as one of the most followed celebrity investors of the year. Yet, despite all this success, she hasn't appeared on the Indian big screen in not one, but five whole years. Can you guess who she is? According to the 2025 Candere Hurun India Women Leaders list, Priyanka Chopra is the second most followed celebrity investor on the list, only slightly behind the topper, Shraddha Kapoor with 94.1 million followers. Priyanka has 92.4 million followers online as per the list; 92.3 million alone on Instagram and 27.2 million on X, formerly Twitter. The list mentioned, 'Priyanka Chopra, 42, with 92.4 million followers, is a global icon and the Co-founder of Purple Pebble Pictures, a production company. She is also the Co-founder of Anomaly Haircare, a brand known for its high-quality, sustainable hair care products. With her entrepreneurial spirit and global reach, Priyanka has expanded her influence beyond acting, making a significant mark in the entertainment and beauty industries.' Reportedly, Priyanka's total net worth is said to be around ₹ 650 crore. She was last seen in the short film, We Are One Family as herself in 2020. However, her last full length role in a Bollywood film was in the movie, The Sky Is Pink, released in 2019. She is set to mark her comeback in Indian cinema with filmmaker SS Rajamouli's next tentatively titled, SSMB29. It also has Mahesh Babu and Prithviraj Sukumaran. According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, Priyanka Chopra has charged a massive ₹ 30 crore for the Rajamouli film, becoming the highest-paid actress in Indian cinema. A source told the portal previously, 'This is why they took so long to announce her participation in the project. She was not willing to budge over her fee, and why should she? Why should only the men actors get double-digit salaries in our films?" Notably, while ₹ 30 crore is a record-breaking paycheck for an Indian actress, Priyanka has earned even more internationally. Now based out of Los Angeles with husband Nick Jonas, she reportedly took home $5 million (over ₹ 41 crore) for her role in Amazon Prime Video's Citadel, as per Hindustan Times. With her recent ₹ 30 crore deal for the pan-India film, Priyanka Chopra has officially surpassed Deepika Padukone to become the highest-paid actress in India. Deepika was the previous highest-earning actress after charging ₹ 20 crore for her role in Kalki 2898 AD.
