Overview

• Insiders say the planned collaboration has been paused after neither Vanga nor Arjun could align shooting dates.
• Vanga remains tied up with pre-production on Spirit starring Prabhas and the Animal Park sequel, both scheduled through 2027.
• Allu Arjun has shifted his focus to the pan-Indian fantasy action film AA22xA6 with director Atlee, which began shooting in Mumbai this month.
• Rumors suggest Jr NTR could replace Arjun if the Vanga project resumes, though no official casting confirmations have been issued.
• The delay follows a string of scheduling and contract disputes in South Indian cinema, including Deepika Padukone’s exit from Spirit over six-hour work-shift demands.
