The makers of the upcoming Prabhas-starrer Adipurush have not yet finalised the female lead. Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior's director Om Raut, who is helming the film, is keen to complete the casting process soon.

Though names of several B-Town actors, including Kriti Sanon are doing the rounds, word is that the makers are keen on Deepika Padukone. They feel she is best suited to play Sita in the film. There had been tattle that Dippy would be roped in, but South filmmaker Nag Ashwin announced his multilingual project starring Prabhas, Padukone and Amitabh Bachchan.
