A tweet from Muko, a Korean drama and entertainment source, confirmed Don’s entry into Indian cinema. A translated excerpt from the tweet states, “This film, titled Spirit, is helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga and features Prabhas, known for Baahubali, in a dark detective crime storyline, where Ma Dong-seok’s character opposes Prabhas’ one.”
The report indicates that Don’s social media activity, particularly his recent travels to India, were in connection with this film, noting, “Recently, Ma Dong-seok was seen posting about his journey to India, confirming it’s for this project.”
The report acknowledged Vanga as ‘one of the most controversial commercial directors recently,’ highlighting the success of his films like Animal and Arjun Reddy. However, it’s uncertain whether Spirit will have a release in Korea, pending Don Lee’s confirmed involvement in the movie.
Spirit, described as a cop action film, features Prabhas in the leading role along with Triptii Dimri, Prakash Raj, and Vivek Oberoi. On Prabhas’ birthday, director Vanga shared a teaser that gave fans an auditory glimpse into Spirit, presenting an introductory narrative through Prabhas’s voice while keeping much of the storyline under wraps.
