The announcement, featuring a fierce Deepika in action-packed scenes, ignited social media, with fans praising her move and criticizing Vanga. Amidst rumors of scheduling conflicts with other projects, Atlee is being lauded for respecting Padukone's vision. Deepika Padukone is once again dominating headlines—but this time, it's not just for her next big project.

Earlier today, the makers of AA22xA6 unveiled an exciting announcement video, officially welcoming Deepika Padukone to the cast. The video teases her in a fierce, action-packed avatar, hinting at a powerful role. It opens with Deepika in conversation with director Atlee as they go over the script, followed by behind-the-scenes glimpses of her prepping for high-octane CGI sequences. From wielding a sword to riding a dummy horse, the footage promises Deepika like never before. As the announcement video went viral across social media, Deepika Padukone's fans took to Reddit to troll Sandeep Reddy Vanga. While one user wrote, 'Yup, so it was never about speaking Telugu or 8 hours or remuneration. All those were lies? Guess we now know who the bigger liar was in this whole saga', another one added, 'Man child Vangu crying in the corner'. A user also commented, 'She has been the top actress for years.

Malavika Mohanan All Set To Join Karthi In Bangkok For 'Sardar 2' Shoot
This phase in Bangkok is anticipated to be dynamic, featuring high-octane sequences and the shooting of a special song. A source close to the project confirmed, 'Malavika Mohanan will head to Bangkok in the first week of June for the next schedule of Sardar 2 with Karthi. The team will also film a special song during this period." Sardar 2 is her next Tamil collaboration with a major star, already generating buzz for its gripping plot and scale. However, this is just part of the picture. Malavika's rising pan-India appeal is evident from her upcoming projects, which include three major films across different industries — The Raja Saab with Prabhas in Telugu, Hridayapoorvam with Mohanlal in Malayalam, and Sardar 2 with Karthi in Tamil. These films have strong potential to perform well not just regionally but across India, because of its star power. Apart from her work, Malavika often makes headlines for her bold statements on crucial matters. During a recent interview, Malavika spoke about persisting gender disparity and said that it never really ended. Expressed her anger at the situation, the actor told Hauterrfly, 'I don't think this disparity has ever ended in the film industry. I also think that men have really gotten smart, and I have seen this in a lot of male actors, suddenly, in the last 5–6 years, they know how to put on the mask of being woke." She further called them out by saying, 'They know exactly what lines to say that make them come across like a feminist, as a very forward-thinking person, someone who treats women as equals. And I have seen them go back from the public eye and become the most misogynistic person ever. It's hypocrisy." Malavika Mohanan's Filmography Malavika began her acting journey in 2013 with the Malayalam film Pattam Pole, where she starred alongside Dulquer Salmaan. Her breakthrough came with Beyond the Clouds (2017), which brought her wider acclaim. Since then, she has featured in a string of notable films across Malayalam, Tamil, and Hindi cinema, including The Great Father (2017), Petta (2019), and Master (2021). This year, she has exciting lineup of films for release.
