Deepika Padukone is making headlines after unexpectedly stepping away from Kalki 2. Her exit has surprised many in the film industry, especially since she was an important part of the first film. While fans were looking forward to her role, Deepika now seems focused on other major projects in Bollywood and possibly even Hollywood.
Deepika Padukone To Star In Vin Diesel’s XXX Sequel?
She is already working on high-profile films with stars like Allu Arjun and Shah Rukh Khan. At the same time, rumours are growing about her possible return to Hollywood in the next part of the XXX franchise with Vin Diesel.
Vin Diesel recently posted on Instagram, hinting at returning to some of his famous roles. He wrote, “So much to share… iconic stories that all resonate with something deep inside… Grateful for you all…” This led fans to believe Deepika might come back as Serena Unger in the next XXX film, possibly set in Mumbai.
Deepika’s Exit From Kalki Sequel
Deepika’s sudden exit from Kalki 2 has also sparked debate. Reports say she asked for a 25% pay hike, limited work hours (only seven per day), and luxury arrangements for her large 25-person team. She also requested five-star stays and food expenses to be covered. Sources say she even asked to double her pay compared to the first film.
The producers reportedly found these demands hard to meet, which led to her stepping away from the project. Though Deepika hasn’t responded to these reports directly, she recently posted about starting work on her next film, King, with Shah Rukh Khan—showing that she’s moving forward with other projects.
