Allu Arjun Out of Sandeep Reddy Vanga Movie?

According to a report by Siasat.com, Sandeep Reddy Vanga has dropped Allu Arjun from an upcoming movie. On the other hand, Filmfare reported that the movie has been shelved. However, there is no official confirmation on the same.

Meanwhile, Sandeep Reddy Vanga is currently busy with SpiritStarring Prabhas and Triptii Dimri. After Spirit, he will start work on Ranbir Kapoor starrer Animal Park.

The reports of Allu Arjun being ousted from a Sandeep Reddy Vanga project come weeks after it was reported that Deepika Padukone has been removed from Spirit due to “unprofessional demands”, including eight-hour work days, a high salary, and a share in the film’s profit.

After reports emerged, Sandeep took to X (formerly Twitter) to slam Deepika of “playing dirty PR games”. He wrote, “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.”
