Deepika Padukone fake tweet Spirit movie — Soon after filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga dropped the explosive audio teaser of his upcoming film “Spirit” starring Prabhas, a fake tweet claiming to be from Deepika Padukone began circulating online — leaving fans confused.
The fake profile posing as the actress of Bollywood recorded a viral post in which Deepika is falsely quoted saying that she was saddened, but loved the video. The tweet read:
“I am sad but wonderful video Sandeep Reddy and happy birthday #Prabhas sir.”
The users of the social media soon assumed it was real and a flow of responses was witnessed. The story was however later proven to be a fake one, made specifically to cause misleading information to be spread after the teaser had been launched.
The Real Story Behind the Viral Fake Tweet
The fake tweet became viral since Deepika Padukone had been attached to play the lead opposite Prabhas in Spirit. She was however replaced by Tripitii Dimri who was said to disagree with her working schedule and salary.
Reports indicate that Deepika had offered work at a few hours, huge salary, and even a profit-sharing arrangement, which apparently did not go well with the director Sandeep Reddy Vanga.
Despite the fact that neither the actress nor the filmmaker actively discussed the matter at that time and embraced the issue on the open stage, the fake tweet revived the old gossips and contributed to unnecessary conjectures in social networks.
Sandeep Reddy Vanga and Prabhas Drop “Spirit” Audio Teaser
In the meantime, Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the director of such hits as Kabir Singh and Animal, unveiled the first audio teaser of Spirit in honor of the 46th birthday of Prabhas.
The one minute teaser, which was termed as a sound story, was released in five Indian languages, including Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam.
In the teaser, the voice of actor Prakash Raj is used to talk about a jailer who talks about an ex-cop who is currently on remand. His assistant instructs him to show respect, however, the jailer is cold and answers that every prisoner should be treated equally. The heavy soundtrack suggests that the character of Prabhas is a police officer in a dilemma, which predetermines the gloomy atmosphere of the movie.
Vanga shared the teaser on social media, writing:
“Happy Birthday Prabhas anna. Presenting a ‘sound story’ in five Indian languages straight from the heart, for every fan who’s felt his (sic).”
Triptii Dimri Steps In as Female Lead
Replacing Deepika, Triptii Dimri joins the main cast alongside Prakash Raj, Vivek Oberoi, and Kanchana. The film, produced by T-Series and Bhadrakali Pictures, promises high-octane action, emotional depth, and a psychological edge.
The technical crew includes Harshavardhan Rameshwar as the music composer, Supreme Sundar handling action choreography, and Raj Thota as cinematographer.
Prabhas Hailed as “India’s Biggest Superstar”
It is a bold teaser that addresses Prabhas as the biggest superstar in India creating arguments with other leading actors such as Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Yash. But considering the pan-India popularity that Prabhas has had since Baahubali, the assertion is not that far-fetched.
Through Spirit, Sandeep Reddy Vanga tries to transform the genre of action by intertwining hardcore narration with emotional solitude – just the way he did in Animal.
Verdict: Fact Check Confirms the Tweet Was Fake
To be clear, Deepika Padukone has never made any tweet about Spirit or Prabhas. The fake viral post was made by a false account that was used to deceive the fans.
Both The Times of India and The Hindu confirmed that the tweet was fabricated and unrelated to the official Spirit promotions.
