According to recent allegations, Deepika Padukone may be replaced during her pregnancy or have her role in Raaka trimmed short.
Actor Deepika Padukone’s second pregnancy has sparked new rumours about her upcoming movie Raaka, which stars Allu Arjun. According to certain rumours, her role has been reduced. But now, the team behind the movie has intervened to make things clear and correct the record.
Should Deepika’s role be diminished?
According to a number of stories, Deepika may be replaced or have her part shortened while she is pregnant. That doesn’t appear to be the case, though. The report has been dismissed by the Raaka team as being without merit.
The team refuted the allegations in a statement to The Times of India, calling them utterly unfounded rumours.Everything is proceeding according to plan. The film’s crew stated, “The shoot is going smoothly with great energy on set, and Deepika Padukone plays a crucial role in Raaka.”
This occurs a few days after it was revealed that Deepika, who revealed her pregnancy on Sunday, intends to keep filming Atlee’s Raaka while she is pregnant. According to an industry insider, Deepika Padukone is filming difficult action scenes for Raaka while she is pregnant. Throughout her pregnancy, she will keep filming the movie. When filming the projects, Deepika and the producers took every safety measure.
According to the insider, “She will continue to shoot for the film throughout her pregnancy.” Deepika is eager to stick to the schedule because both King and Raaka have set release dates and are under pressure.
Atlee is the director and Sun Pictures is the producer of Raaka. The movie, which stars Allu Arjun as well, is anticipated to be released in theatres in 2027. The filmmakers presented Allu Arjun’s first look from the movie on his 44th birthday. It was an intense close-up that showed the actor in a striking bald avatar with a strong and rough countenance.
Deepika Padukone declares she is expecting a second child.
In a joint Instagram post on Sunday, Deepika and her husband Ranveer Singh told their followers that they were ready to welcome parenthood once more. A photo of her daughter Dua Padukone Singh holding a pregnancy test with two clear pink lines—a universal sign of a positive result—was posted by Deepika. Deepika and Ranveer may be seen holding their daughter tenderly. Deepika used only evil eye emojis as the post’s caption.
After welcoming their first child, Dua, in September 2024, they kept her out of the spotlight for several months. They didn’t announce her to fans until Diwali 2025, when they shared glimpses of their family time and revealed her name.
