Prabhas hasn’t been seen on the Spirit sets in two months. Not a single frame shot since early September. The film’s Mumbai schedule rolls on without him, and the silence is louder than any trailer drop. 

The last time he was on set, around 50 days of shooting were wrapped — just under half the total shoot. Since then, he’s been in Fauzi, his other high-stakes project, finishing up his portions. That film, once slated for December 3, 2026, has now slipped into 2027. A shift that may not be coincidental. 

With Fauzi’s release pushed out, the window for Spirit, still officially set for March 5, 2027. Could open up. But no word from T-Series or Bhadrakali Pictures confirms any change. Rumours swirl: could Spirit get an earlier push? Or will it stay locked in its current slot, waiting for Prabhas to reappear? 

Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s vision for Spirit is built on scale, spectacle, and a star who can carry it all. Vivek Oberoi’s villain role is locked in. Harshavardhan Rameshwar’s score is already in motion. But without Prabhas, the engine idles. 

Fans aren’t just waiting. They’re tracking. Every delay, every quiet week, gets parsed. And with the next phase of filming already underway in Mumbai, the question isn’t just when Prabhas returns, it’s whether he’ll return at all before the final stretch begins. 

The answer, like so many things in this industry, remains unconfirmed. But the clock is ticking.
