Deepika’s exit from “Spirit”pretty normal
In the backdrop of Deepika Padukone-Sandeep Reddy Vanga Row, actress Rashmika Mandanna last seen in the telugu film “Pushpa 2″: The Rule, opines that it’s Pretty Normal”
Infact, Deepika’s exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit has fueled a fresh debate around actors’ working hours and the demanding nature of film shoots. Reflecting on the conversation, actress Rashmika Mandanna, who earlier worked with Sandeep Vanga on Animal, has now shared her perspective on the issue.
In a recent media interaction, Rashmika revealed that today, when the debate is going on, she’s well aware a lot of people have opinions about it, and rightly so. But it’s fair that you went and told her director, ‘Okay, this is the timeframe she wants to work in. Can we do this?’” she said.
“Of course, it’s their personal debate. But just to throw a little light on these things, there are much worse scenarios happening where you are working 2–3 days without going home, without even having a little nap,” she added.
Sharing her own experience working across multiple industries, Rashmika spoke of the contrasting schedules between regional and Hindi cinema.
She said, she works in multiple industries, which is, for example, in the South – Telugu industry, Kannada industry, or Tamil industry, they work 9 am to 6 pm, like it’s office hours. After shoot, spend time with family, go to sleep and head to shoot the next day. In Hindi, Rashmika has realised it’s a
9 am to 9 pm shift. It’s 12 working hours so now as an actress, she is open to both of these working hours because this is what her firm requires.
She didn’t shy away from calling out the extreme lengths some productions go to. Adding that in some films Some you can start at 9 am and are supposed to finish at
9 pm, but they actually carry on till the next day, 9 pm. So you’re working 36 to 48 hours straight. We work around the clock. It’s pretty normal
Deepika Padukone’s decision to leave Spirit reportedly stemmed from creative differences and demands that included an eight-hour workday, profit-sharing, and substantial compensation. The actress has since been replaced by Triptii Dimri in the film.
