Genelia Deshmukh joins long work hours debate, says 10-hour shifts aren't impossible

Amid an ongoing industry-wide discussion on work-life balance in the film world, actor Genelia Deshmukh has shared her views on managing long working hours. Her comments come after reports that Deepika Padukone exited 'Spirit', directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, allegedly because he refused to allow her request for an eight-hour workday. Genelia said she often works 10 hours a day, and sometimes even more, but believes it's all part of the filmmaking with Zoom, Genelia said, '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.'The debate on work hours in the film industry gained attention after Deepika reportedly left 'Spirit'. She had made a few demands before exiting the project. These included an eight-hour workday, a share in the film's profits, and not speaking her dialogues in Telugu. Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga reportedly declined these requests. The issue sparked widespread discussion, with celebrities like Mani Ratnam, Ajay Devgn, and Neha Dhupia voicing support for Deepika's stance. Actor Triptii Dimri was later roped in to replace her, while Deepika moved on to a new Telugu project with director Atlee and actor Allu Genelia will next be seen in 'Sitaare Zameen Par', a sports comedy-drama produced by Aamir Khan. The film features ten debut actors and is directed by RS Prasanna. 'Sitaare Zameen Par' is scheduled to release in theatres on June Watch
