Is DeepikaPadukone’s role in Raaka trimmed?
Several reports suggested that Deepika’s role might be cut short or that she could even be replaced amid her pregnancy. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case. The Raaka team has now called the reports baseless, rubbishing the rumours. In a statement issued to The Times of India, the team dismissed the claims with the makers terming them completely baseless rumours. The film’s team stated, “Everything is moving as planned. DeepikaPadukone plays a crucial role in Raaka, and the shoot is unfolding seamlessly with great energy on set.”
An industry insider says Deepika is filming intense action sequences for Raaka.
The actress continues to play her part in Atlee’s Raaka along with Allu Arjun amid her second pregnancy. An industry insider recently stated, “During her pregnancy, DeepikaPadukone is shooting intense action sequences for Raaka. She will continue to shoot for the film throughout her pregnancy.” Deepika and the makers have taken all precautions during filming. The source added, “She will continue to shoot for the film throughout her pregnancy.”
With both King and Raaka locked into release dates and running on tight timelines, Deepika is keen to stay on track and adhere to the schedule.
