With Deepika Padukone walking out of Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s directorial Spirit starring Prabhas, there have been many speculations doing the rounds about the reason for her sudden exit. While some cited uneven work hours, others blamed Deepika's fee demands, and many claimed that the actress is difficult to work with. A new report suggests that Sandeep Reddy Vanga intends to make Spirit an A-rated film, which could be one of the reasons behind Deepika's decision to step away.
Pinkvilla, in a recent development, shared that Deepika Padukone let go of Spirit because of the A-rated scenes in the film. The portal quoted a source saying, "Sandeep Reddy Vanga wanted to cast an actress who would be comfortable with sequences written on paper. He has promised a comfortable and professional atmosphere on the sets amidst the shoot to Triptii."
