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.'

Housefull 5 Box Office Collection day 1: Decent start for Akshay Kumar's film, crosses ₹13 crore on opening day

Housefull 5 Box Office Collection day 1: The much-awaited film, Housefull 5, starring Akshay Kumar and his gang released in cinema on Friday. Off to a decent start, the murder mystery has crossed ₹ 13 crore at the box office. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Housefull 5 has so far minted ₹ 13.81 crore. However, these are the real-time updates from morning and afternoon. The final figures will be out after 10 pm. If the film maintains similar momentum during the evening and night shows, its total earnings could potentially double by the end of the day. Housefull 5 had an overall 20.93% Occupancy on Friday in 2D format. The 3D format saw an occupancy of 10.76% on June 06, 2025. Cities like Mumbai, Delhi NCR and Ahmedabad had the highest occupancy with the highest number of screenings for the film in all formats. Following closely is Pune, Bengaluru and Surat on the list. Overall, the film has done better business than expected. Going by its advance sales booking, the film was set to premiere with ₹ ₹ 6.87 crore gross earnings (including the blocked seats). Housefull 5 is clashing with the Hindi version of Kamal Haasan's Thug Life which was released a day ahead of Housefull 6. Thug Life, however, has received an underwhelming response. On the other hand, both the films are also clashing with Maddock Films' Bhool Chuk Maaf, starring Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi. Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted, ''HOUSEFULL 5' IS AKSHAY KUMAR'S WIDEST OVERSEAS RELEASE... The much-awaited #Housefull5 has released in… 85+ countries 1300+ locations 2000+ screens.' He also reviewed the film and called it 'Dhamaal'. "#OneWordReview… #Housefull5: DHAMAAL. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️½ The #Housefull franchise returns with a bang – this time, it's bigger, louder, and crazier... A paisa-vasool entertainer with madness, a thrilling climax, and mass-moments galore. #Housefull5Review. First things first: In a film like #Housefull5, logic takes a backseat... The key is to surrender yourself to the craziness and enjoy the rollercoaster ride. 'Director #TarunMansukhani infuses fresh energy into the franchise, while retaining the essence that fans have loved over the years... #HF5 continues the series' tradition of over-the-top humour, madcap storytelling, and visual extravaganza. The writing is peppered with witty one-liners, quirky twists, and cleverly staged gags... In short, #HF5 strikes the right balance between madness and masala,' his post read. Taran also mentioned what did not work in the film for him. He added, 'Minus points? A few jokes feel dated and forced. Some supporting characters are underutilized. The post-interval screenplay could've been tighter.'
