Sandeep Vanga Reddy's Cryptic Tweet Goes Viral Amid 'Spirit' Casting Rumour, Netizens Guess He's Calling Out Deepika Padukone For Leaking His Story
New Delhi: There has been a lot of buzz around the female lead casting of 'Animal' director Sandeep Vanga Reddy's upcoming venture 'Spirit' with Prabhas. Earlier, buzz was strong that Deepika Padukone might be finalised for the lead role but looks like things didn't work out between the two and now Triptii Dimri has replaced the top star in 'Spirit' officially. However, it doesn't end here.
The filmmaker took to his X account (formerly known as Twitter) and dropped a cryptic tweet reading: When I narrate a story to an actor, I place 100% faith. There is an unsaid NDA(Non Disclosure Agreement) between us. But by doing this, You've 'DISCLOSED' the person that you are....Putting down a Younger actor and ousting my story? Is this what your feminism stands for ? As a filmmaker, I put years of hard work behind my craft & for me, filmmaking is everything. You didn't get it. You won't get it. You will never get it. Aisa karo.... Agli baar poori kahani bolna... kyunki mujhe jarra bhi farak nahi padtha. #dirtyPRgames I like this kahawath very much :-) खुंदक में बिल्ली खंबा नोचे !

Although he didn't name anyone, many users in the comment section assumed he was talking about Deepika Padukone.
Sandeep Vanga Reddy's tweet comes after a Pinkvilla report citing sources disclosed the details about Spirit's storyline. It mentioned how the movie is a quintessential Telugu entertainer, but the director will add in 'A-Rated Action' twist. The report also shared how the film will have violent action scenes and bold sequences as well.
Interestingly, Tripti and Reddy have worked previously together in 'Animal'.
Spirit will feature Prabhas and Triptii Dimri in lead roles. The movie is backed by T-Series and Bhadrakali Pictures.

When Rajkummar Rao had just Rs 18 in Mumbai! "My mother supported me a lot," revealed the actor
Rajkummar Rao , one of Bollywood's most acclaimed actors today, once opened up about the intense financial struggles he faced during the early days of his acting journey. During an old podcast, the actor offered an emotional throwback to a time when he had only Rs 18 in his bank account, unsure where his next meal would come from. Surviving Mumbai on biscuits and juice Rajkummar, during his conversation with Ranveer Allahabadia, recalled how, in the absence of steady work, he often skipped lunch and sustained himself with just a packet of Parle G biscuits and a Frooti, a meal that cost only ₹4 back then. "My mother supported me a lot. Whenever I ran out of money, she would somehow arrange it and send it to me," he shared. The actor lived in a flat with two others, keeping expenses minimal while chasing a dream that often seemed out of reach. Turning to Friends for Dinner Reflecting on his lowest moment, when he was left with just ₹18, Rajkummar remembered calling friends from his FTII network in Mumbai, asking if he could join them for dinner. 'A lot of seniors and juniors live here. So, you can ring anybody and ask what they're having for dinner and if you can come,' he said, highlighting the unspoken bond of support among struggling artists. Cycling 70 Km a Day with Dreams in His Pocket The actor also reminisced about his early training days at Shri Ram Centre in Delhi, where he began studying acting at age 18. Unaware of how to get a subsidized student bus pass, Rajkummar cycled 70 km daily to attend classes. To stay motivated, he would listen to inspirational songs like Lakshya Ko Har Haal Mein Pana Hai and Papa Kehte Hain on his walkman. 'It sounds filmy now,' he said, 'but it used to be a lot of fun.' First Salary at Age 13 In another candid moment, Rajkummar recalled how he earned ₹300 tutoring a young girl when he was in the 8th standard, his first salary, which he used to buy groceries for his family. Today, those small sacrifices form the foundation of a remarkable journey from hardship to stardom. On the work front, Rajkummar was last seen in the recently released film 'Bhool Chuk Maaf'.

OnlyFans star Bonnie Blue's Instagram deleted after she reveals plans for her viral public stunt with 2,000 men
British OnlyFans sensation Bonnie Blue is back in the spotlight, only this time, it is not for her jaw-dropping goals but because her main TikTok and Instagram accounts have mysteriously vanished. And yes, it all happened just after she casually announced her plans to engage in an intimate marathon with 2,000 men. You read that right. Bonnie Blue's Instagram and TikTok have vanished! Bonnie, whose real name is Tia Billinger, made waves earlier this year by claiming she had been physically intimate with 1,057 men in just 12 hours. But now, the 26-year-old Nottinghamshire native said she wants to double down—literally. In a bold video shared on her now-gone @bonnie_blue_xox accounts, she revealed plans to top her previous record on 15th June, saying she would be tied up in a public glass box in London where people could 'either watch or get involved.' Bonnie Blue's confirmation If you just blinked, you missed it. As of June 2, her primary TikTok and Instagram handles, each boasting hundreds of thousands of followers—are completely gone. While the star herself has not confirmed if the takedown was voluntary or enforced, fans are speculating that platforms may have clapped back at her wildly NSFW stunt announcement. Bonnie's second Instagram account, @bonnieblue, and her backup TikTok still remain up, as does her X (formerly Twitter) page, so clearly, she is not going anywhere just yet. Before she became a headline-making adult creator reportedly raking in £750,000 a month, Bonnie worked in recruitment and was even married. But she ditched the desk job for the digital limelight, where she has become known for pushing boundaries, perhaps a little too far this time. Bonnie Blue's next challenge The 15th June event is still supposedly a go, although with her biggest platforms gone, Bonnie may have to find new ways to spread the word. Meanwhile, the internet is divided, some are calling her iconic, others are just stunned. OF model Bonnie Blue brags about her plans to sleep with 2,000 men in one day and be 'tied up in a glass box and open to the public.' Blue has told men to 'get involved or just walk around and watch' as she plans the shocking 2,000 man stunt. Whether you think it is performance art or PR chaos, one thing is for sure: Bonnie Blue knows how to get everyone talking. And now, she is got us all refreshing TikTok to see if she makes a comeback, or breaks the internet again.
