Rebel Star Prabhas, the pan-Indian superstar who rose to fame with the Baahubali franchise, currently has multiple exciting projects in his pipeline. Two of his most anticipated upcoming films include the high-octane cop action drama Spirit and the much-awaited sequel to the groundbreaking sci-fi mythological epic Kalki 2898 AD: Part 2. Now, fresh reports indicate that February 2026 is shaping up to be an exceptionally busy and action-filled month for the celebrated actor.
Prabhas to Juggle Dual Shoot Schedules Simultaneously
If the latest industry buzz is to be believed, Prabhas is preparing to work on both Spirit and Kalki 2 at the same time during February 2026. This will involve long shooting days and extremely tight schedules, testing the actor's stamina and dedication. The Baahubali star is known for his intense work ethic, and this simultaneous shoot promises to deliver back-to-back cinematic spectacles for his massive fanbase.
Kalki 2898 AD: Part 2 Shooting to Commence Soon
According to a report by Deccan Chronicle, Prabhas is all set to return to the sets as he begins work on Kalki 2898 AD: Part 2. The sequel to the highly successful Kalki 2898 AD will reportedly start its principal photography in February 2026. Visionary director Nag Ashwin will once again helm this ambitious project, continuing the unique blend of science fiction and Indian mythology that captivated audiences in the first installment.
The first part was a monumental box office success, and fans across the globe are eagerly anticipating the next chapter. The production team is planning an accelerated shooting schedule to ensure the film progresses smoothly to its next stages of post-production and eventual release.
Following Bollywood superstar Deepika Padukone's exit from the sequel, there has been immense curiosity about the new female lead. While no official confirmation has been made, recent reports strongly suggest that acclaimed actress Sai Pallavi might join the cast. She is being actively considered to replace Padukone in this pivotal role, bringing her own distinct talent to the epic narrative.
About the Cop Action Drama Spirit
Simultaneously, Prabhas will also rejoin the sets of Spirit, directed by the maverick filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga. Regular shooting for this intense action drama commenced in late last year, and Prabhas is now expected to complete his remaining portions soon. The film also stars Tripti Dimri, who gained widespread recognition for her role in Animal, as the female lead.
The movie is anticipated to be a gritty, high-stakes cop story packed with adrenaline-pumping action sequences. Interestingly, Spirit was initially planned with Deepika Padukone in a leading role, but was later recast with Tripti Dimri. Veteran actors Vivek Oberoi and Prakash Raj are also integral parts of the ensemble, portraying significant characters that add depth to the storyline.
Spirit is currently scheduled for a grand worldwide release on March 5, 2027, setting the stage for another potential blockbuster in Prabhas's illustrious career.
