Katrina Kaif in talks for ‘Spirit’ after Deepika Padukone’s exit
Katrina Kaif has become the key name in play as the makers of ‘Spirit’ reassess casting after Deepika Padukone’s departure. Industry sources say Kaif is in talks for a high‑impact cameo, with the role positioned as a brief but strategic appearance.
The discussions are active but not confirmed, and the makers are said to be weighing scheduling and narrative fit before moving ahead. Kaif’s presence is being explored for its promotional value rather than as a full‑length replacement.
