Notably, Prabhas was nowhere to be seen, which has only made fans more curious. Are the makers keeping his look under wraps? It certainly seems so.More About SpiritThe action thriller marks the first collaboration between Prabhas and Vanga. The movie also stars Prakash Raj, Vivek Oberoi and Kanchana in lead roles. Its official release date is yet to be announced.Its sound story was unveiled by the makers on the actor's birthday. It was an intense prison confrontation between Prabhas and Raj, who plays a no-nonsense jail superintendent and views the world in sharp binaries, “either khakhis or kaidis.” The lead character, once a top-ranking IPS officer, finds himself behind bars after being dismissed for misconduct, leading to a charged encounter between the two. Their clash apparently forms the backbone of the film’s tense narrative.Spirit is believed to track this disgraced officer as he undertakes a mission to dismantle a powerful global crime network. His unyielding chase for justice propels him into a brutal journey where the fight to regain his lost honour transforms into a monumental, larger-than-life battle.
