Actress Hasleen Kaur opened up on Deepika Padukone and her demand for 8-hour shift.
She also shared details on “extra fees” for more working hours beyond the stipulated time. Adding we all need to respect each other’s time and agrees that they are making
time-bound larger-than-life projects. But let’s be honest, there’s a lot of time wasted that happens on the sets. So, if they are able to efficiently manage themselves and cut out all those time waste areas, they should be able to finish the work of the day earlier than expected instead of working for 12 or 14 hours.
The actress also stressed the need for work-life balance. She further added that in India, the technicians are booked for 12 hours. The moment they go beyond that, their shift becomes that of 1 ½ days, and they charge accordingly. This extra fee should be applicable to everyone working on the set. So, when the accountability increases and if the producers understand that the money is going from their pocket, then they will start adhering to tighter timelines. Also, there should be a work-life balance. At the end of a long day, they all want to return home, get some rest, unwind and get back to work with a fresh state of mind
On the workfront, the actress recently featured recently in her first international film, Ruthless Bastards, in which she played a gangster. She was recently seen in Raat Jawan Hai on Sony Liv. She will be part of another series as the lead opposite Barun Sobti, called Ekatthe. Harleen starred in several films such as Karle Pyaar Karle, CAT, Mili and Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar.
For those unversed Hasleen Kaur is an actress-model-beauty pageant titleholder. She was the first runner up at the Pantaloons Femina Miss India and represented India at the Miss Earth 2011 beauty pageant on 3 December 2011.
