Mumbai,  1 Jan

The makers of the upcoming film 'Spirit' on Wednesday unveiled the first-look poster of the Prabhas-starrer, giving audiences a glimpse into the intense world of the much-anticipated project.

The poster shows actor Triptii Dimri lighting a cigarette for Prabhas, who appears injured, with visible wounds on his body, hinting at a gritty and violent narrative. The visual has sparked curiosity among fans and film circles.

Sharing the poster on social media platform X, director Sandeep Reddy Vanga described the film as a celebration of Indian cinema and wished fans a happy New Year.

'Spirit' also features actor Vivek Oberoi in a key role and is slated for release in 2026. The film is produced jointly by Bhushan Kumar’s T-Series and Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Bhadrakali Pictures.

An audio teaser of the film, released in October last year on Prabhas’ birthday, suggested that the actor plays an IPS officer who is currently behind bars. The teaser was released in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam, and confirmed Prakash Raj and Vivek Oberoi as part of the cast.

Actor Deepika Padukone was initially set to play the female lead but exited the project due to scheduling conflicts. The role was later taken up by Triptii Dimri.
