What's Happening
- After Deepika Padukone's exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit over her 8-hour work demand, Genelia Deshmukh recently shared her opinion on the same.
- Genelia told Zoom, "It is tough but it is not impossible. I do work for 10 hours a day and there are days when the director asks to extend it to 11 or 12 hours. I think it's fair but we just need time to make those adjustments. When you have a day or two where you have to overdo, it's also an understanding and a process that needs to be done."
