Ajay Devgn supports Deepika

Bollywood star Ajay Devgn recently spoke about sensible filmmakers in the film industry at an event in Mumbai. He said that if new mothers ask for an 8-hour work shift, many directors and producers would be ready to support it. He made it clear that no one would object to such a reasonable request. These comments are linked to the situation of actress Deepika Padukone, who is currently the talk of the town in Bollywood. Many people consider these comments as a subtle support for Deepika.

Recently, there were reports of differences between famous director Sandeep Reddy Vanga and Deepika Padukone. Although Sandeep Reddy Vanga approached Deepika for his next film ‘Spirit’, it is known that she asked for a 6-hour work shift along with a hefty remuneration. As these conditions were not acceptable to Vanga, it is reported that actress Tripti Dimri was chosen instead for the role. ‘Spirit’ is a high-voltage crime drama film starring Tollywood star Prabhas in the lead role. It is generating huge expectations among the audience.

In this context, some media reports have stated that Deepika has rejected this role due to the A-rated content of the film. Reacting to these news, Sandeep Reddy Vanga has made serious allegations that Deepika is playing “dirty PR games” and running a smear campaign against him and the ‘Spirit’ project. The controversy has become a hot topic of discussion in Bollywood circles, and Deepika has not yet responded publicly to these allegations.

Although Ajay Devgn did not specifically mention anyone in his comments, there is a discussion on social media that his words in this context are indicative of support for Deepika Padukone. These comments made by Ajay Devgn on the working conditions of actresses who are new mothers have further fueled the discussion on work-life balance for women in the industry. This controversy and Ajay Devgn's comments are likely to lead to more interesting discussions in Bollywood.
