Netizens are in shock after makers of Kalki 2898AD have announced that she will no longer be a part of the sequel.
Thursday morning came as a shocker for all the Deepika Padukone fans after it was announced that she will no longer be a part of Kalki 2898AD’s sequel. The makers of the film, which also starred Prabhas and Amitabh Bachchan in a pivotal role, officially announced the news of them parting ways with the actress. Social media is now filled with netizens going crazy over this news, and we don’t blame them at all.
Fans reacting to Deepika Padukone’s exit from Kalki 2898AD’s sequel
One of the fans wrote, “Boycott from Tollywood #DeepikaPadukone, while another wrote, “Do you think can any other actress can Replace #DeepikaPadukone in #Kalki2 ?? I don't think soo...”
One of DP's fans wrote, “Because #DeepikaPadukone only wants to work at times that are suitable for her, all the other actors have to adjust their schedules to match her availability.” It was followed by comments like, “Both Spirit & Kalki 2 nunchi Out Yedho pedha issue ey ayindhi”, “Good for Deepika Padukone.”
Some of the tweets also read, “Deepika Padukone full focus on Allu Arjun Movie !”, “I think it's clear now that it was not Vanga or the producers, her attitude itself is also part of the problem.”, “Lead actress ko nikal re kya logic hy movie pe asar nai padega kya.”
Official announcement by makers
Sharing the update on their official X handle, Vyjayanthi Movies wrote, “This is to officially announce that @deepikapadukone will not be a part of the upcoming sequel of #Kalki2898AD. After careful consideration, we have decided to part ways. Despite the long journey of making the first film, we were unable to find a partnership. And a film like @Kalki2898AD deserves that commitment and much more. We wish her the best with her future works.”
Deepika Padukone’s role in Kalki 2898 AD
Talking about her role in the Nag Ashwin directorial, Deepika Padukone played the role of Sumathi. She played one of the main roles in the film, whose character was tied to the central conflict of the movie. She played a pregnant lady in the film who is supposedly carrying the 10th avatar of Lord Vishnu in her womb. Her child is destined to bring an end to the antagonist Yaskin's reign, played by Kamal Haasan.
She was expected to reprise her role in the sequel, and her character would have taken the story ahead. But now, after her exit, we bet the makers must be in a fix on how to fill the gap and maintain a continuation of the narrative.
