After Spirit, Is Sandeep Reddy Planning a Film with Mahesh Babu?

Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga created a strong identity in the film industry with blockbuster movies like Arjun Reddy, Kabir Singh and Animal. Known for intense emotions, raw action and powerful hero characters, he is now working on a massive project titled Spirit with pan-India star Prabhas. The audio glimpse released on Prabhas birthday received a great response, raising expectations. The film is expected to begin shooting soon and is planned for a theatrical release in 2026.

Meanwhile, strong buzz is going around that Sandeep Reddy Vanga may collaborate with Tollywood superstar Mahesh Babu after Spirit. Reports suggest that early script work has already begun. Mahesh Babu is currently busy with SS Rajamouli’s big adventure film Varanasi, which may take more than a year to complete. During this time, Sandeep Vanga is said to be preparing the script in detail.

According to industry talk, the project may be titled Devil. Sandeep Vanga had earlier mentioned in an interview that he narrated this story to Mahesh Babu in 2023 and that it is even more intense than Animal. Though Mahesh liked the story, the project did not move forward due to date issues. Now, the news of its revival has excited fans. The film is expected to have a gangster backdrop with a dark and aggressive tone. Fans believe that seeing Mahesh Babu in such an intense role could be a game-changer for Tollywood. However, no official confirmation has been made yet.
