I don't know how I'm going to navigate that going ahead… It's really difficult to work in our film industry, given the number of hours and how we film generally, and the time for which we don't get to see the child. So I guess I'll just have to figure it out now.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Taking to X, the Animal helmer shared a cryptic tweet. The director didn't mention Deepika Padukone but slammed her for her dirty PR games and revealing some parts of her film's story. 'When I narrate a story to an actor, I place 100% faith. There is an unsaid NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) between us. But by doing this, You've 'DISCLOSED' the person that you are…Putting down a Younger actor and ousting my story? Is this what your feminism stands for? As a filmmaker, I put years of hard work behind my craft & for me, filmmaking is everything. You didn't get it. You won't get it. You will never get it," Vanga wrote. Reasons why the actress quit Spirit There are three reasons that have been reported so far. One of them has to do with the fact that Deepika has just embraced motherhood as she now has her daughter Dua in her life. Here are the three reported reasons: Deepika Padukone reportedly insisted on 8-hour shifts that barely allows for 6 hours of filming. She also demanded whooping Rs 20 Crores for the project & also a share in profits, she allegedly refused to speak her Telugu lines. A new source says the film has a lot of bold scenes and maybe it was Padukone's discomfort that led to her exit. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

Radhika Apte says the film industry isn't ‘conducive' to new mothers: ‘The time for which we don't see the child…'
After Deepika Padukone and Saif Ali Khan, Radhika Apte is the latest actor to bat for more family time. Talking to IE, she admitted that the film industry isn't really 'conducive' to new mothers like her and admitted she doesn't know how to navigate her work now. (Also Read: After Deepika Padukone, Saif Ali Khan also champions family time for actors: 'I hate coming home and seeing...') When asked if the film industry is conducive to new mothers like her, Radhika said, 'I don't think they are. I don't know how I'm going to navigate that going ahead.' This comes after reports of Deepika recently turning down Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Prabhas-starrer Spirit after her requests for an 8-hour workday and a better remuneration package weren't met. Ajay Devgn and Kajol publicly supported her, while Saif also advocated prioritising family time. Radhika claimed that it was difficult to balance her work and new motherhood, stating, 'It's really difficult to work in our film industry, given the number of hours and how we film generally, and the time for which we don't get to see the child. So I guess I'll just have to figure it out now.' The actor has been splitting her time between Mumbai and London for a while now, making it even more difficult. Radhika, who gave birth to a baby girl in December last year, opened up to ANI recently about the emotional highs and lows she has experienced. She said, 'I was very prepared for postpartum, actually. And I had also made sure that my friends and family were aware that if I went into postpartum depression, they needed to support me. To my own surprise, I was just purely elated when I had a child. And fortunately, I didn't suffer from severe depression at any point.' She is married to musician Benedict Taylor.
