In response to these reports, Sandeep Reddy Vanga, in his cryptic message, criticized actors for engaging in ‘dirty PR games’.
A portion of his post stated, “Putting down a younger actor and ousting my story? Is this what your feminism stands for? As a filmmaker, I dedicate years of hard work to my craft, and for me, filmmaking is everything. You didn’t understand it. You won’t understand it. You will never understand it.” His post has gone viral, with many speculating whether it was aimed at Deepika Padukone. On the professional front, Deepika Padukone’s upcoming project is Kalki 2898 AD part 2. It has also been reported that she will appear in Shah Rukh Khan’s film “King”.
