The upcoming action drama ‘Spirit’, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, is one of the most anticipated films in Bollywood. Backed by T-Series and People Media Factory, the film stars Prabhas in the lead role. After delivering blockbusters like Kabir Singh, Arjun Reddy, and Animal, Sandeep Reddy Vanga has become one of the most talked-about directors in the industry.
Director Known for Reinventing Stars
Sandeep is known for giving actors a new identity on screen. His direction in Animal helped present Ranbir Kapoor in a completely fresh and powerful avatar, something the actor had not explored before. Fans now have high expectations from his upcoming films, especially Spirit, which is his third Hindi-language project.
Prabhas and Deepika to Share Screen Again
A major update from the film is the casting of Deepika Padukone as the female lead opposite Prabhas. This marks their second collaboration after Kalki 2898 AD. However, in Spirit, director Sandeep Reddy Vanga is planning to focus more on the romantic chemistry between the two stars.
