'Multiple things' led to Deepika's exit: Sandeep Reddy's brother on 'Spirit' controversy

Sandeep Reddy Vanga's brother has revived controversy regarding Deepika Padukone's exit from 'Spirit'. He cited remuneration and scheduling as primary reasons for her departure from the film. Padukone reportedly demanded ten percent of the film's profit, which was deemed unfeasible. Discussions about the story and character were also allegedly leaked by the actress. The makers claimed they were willing to pay more but economics did not align.
