kalki 2: Alia Bhatt to replace deepika padukone
some time back, deepika was dropped from the kalki 2898 ad sequel
the makers cited creative & commitment-related differences with deepika
deepika had allegedly sought to reduce her working hours to 7-8 hours
deepika played a pivotal role as SUM-80 aka Sumati ( prophesied mother of Kalki in the 1st film)
alia bhatt is now a strong contender for deepika's role
there were talks about nag ashwin & alia collabing on a different project
looks like they'll be working together for the kalki sequel if things work out
alia also has the yrf spy actioner - alpha in her line-up
she will be seen in slb's love and war as well with ranbir & vicky
