Kajol Backs Work-Life Balance Amid Deepika's 8-Hr Shift Debate: ‘Never Worked 20 Hours'
Last Updated: Kajol said she never worked 20 or 30 hour shifts and was always clear about setting limits, with her mother supporting her stance. Kajol recently mentioned that she has never worked for 20-30 hours straight and has always prioritised work-life balance since starting her acting career in the 1990s. This statement was made amidst reports of Deepika Padukone 's exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit. Reports claimed that the actress, who recently became a mother, requested an eight-hour workday- a condition that reportedly didn't go over well with the filmmaker. Now, Kajol has also weighed in on the debate over work hours in the industry. While speaking with PTI, Kajol shared that she was among the few actors who focused on one film at a time, unlike other actors who worked on multiple projects simultaneously. She emphasised that she never worked excessively long hours and always maintained a certain amount of work, supported strongly by her mother. 'I was one of the few people who worked on one film at a time; I didn't do 4 films at the same time . I used to finish one film, then start another. I didn't work for 20 or 30 hours. I was always very clear that we would work a certain amount only, and my mom also backed me up big time on it," she said. Reflecting on a similar situation after the birth of her first child, Nysa, Kajol mentioned that her husband, Ajay Devgn, and most producers were very supportive, accommodating her needs without hesitation. The actress recalled that during difficult personal times, the producers she worked with were extremely understanding, allowing her to wrap up early when necessary. Kajol Recalls Shooting For 'U Me Aur Hum' And 'Fanaa' Kajol recalled shooting for U Me Aur Hum in 2008 when her father was in the hospital and Nysa was just two years old. Ajay, who was the producer, ensured she could balance her work and personal life, allowing her to go home early so she could go to the hospital. While filming Fanaa in 2006, Kajol noted that everyone worked comfortably around her schedule without making it an issue or including it in the contract. She concluded that she has had wonderful experiences, with most people understanding and accommodating her needs. Ajay Devgn's Stance On 8-Hour Shifts During the trailer launch of Kajol's next film Maa, Ajay Devgn was asked how Hindi filmmakers are reacting to the idea of actors, especially new mothers, wanting shorter work hours. Ajay responded, 'It's not that it's not going down well with people." He added, 'Most honest filmmakers will not have problems with it. And apart from this, being a mother and working for eight hours, most people have started working eight-nine hours shifts." First Published:

Never worked for 20 hours, producers were understanding: Kajol on debate over work hours in industry
Actor Kajol says maintaining work-life balance has always been a priority since she started acting in the 1990s and the journey became easier with the support of her family as well as the producers. "I was one of the few people who worked on one film at a time; I didn't do 4 films at the same time (like other actors). I used to finish one film, then start another. I didn't work for 20 or 30 hours. I was always very clear that we would work a certain amount only, and my mom also backed me up big time on it," the 50-year-old actor told PTI in an interview. Actor Deepika Padukone's alleged exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's "Spirit" after the two did not agree over an eight-hour working shift among other conditions has sparked a discussion around shooting hours in the industry. Kajol, who next appears in horror thriller "Maa", said she had the same discussion after she gave birth to her first child, Nysa, with husband Ajav Devgn. "I remember having this discussion, and I think most producers are so (okay), they don't even think twice," the actor said. Sharing her past experiences, Kajol said whenever she faced challenges on the personal front, the producers of her movies were quite "understanding" and allowed her to leave the sets early when necessary. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo "I remember shooting for 'U Me Aur Hum' (2008), and my dad was in the hospital at that time, and Nysa was two years old, so it was a double whammy.

So, I've had wonderful experiences. Most of the time, people do understand, and they work around you." Kajol has a slew of projects in the pipeline, beginning with "Maa", which is directed by Vishal Furia, who is known for his work on "Lapachhapi", "Criminal Justice" and "Chhorii". The movie narrates the story of a mother who becomes Goddess Kali to end a demonic curse rooted in fear, blood, and betrayal. Kajol said "Maa", written by Saiwyn Quadras, started out as a thriller, and gradually transformed into a full-blown horror movie. "When I agreed to do the film and heard the concept, I loved it. I'm a full mythological buff. I love our Indian mythology, we've amazing characters, stories, ideas and viewpoints, whether it is karma or dharma. "When they came to me, I thought it was very apt that this story is coming out at a time when they say that we are living in the Kalyug. The timing is perfect," she added. Kajol said she is someone who doesn't lean towards horror films and credits Furia for convincing her to do the project. "The scripts that I was approached with didn't have the right feel and vibe to it. Though I haven't read too many horror scripts, of the few that I have been offered, they have not been of the greatest calibre. "The horror films that were made earlier never concentrated on their script. It was about the supernatural element, blood, gore, how to scare people, etc was given more importance than the story and characters," said the actor. "Maa", which is slated to be released in cinema halls on June 27, is produced by Devgn. She said Devgn played a pivotal role in shaping up the story of "Maa", and even shot some portions of the climax. "He is a great producer. He is involved on the script level, VFX and the action. He did shoot parts of the climax as well," Kajol said, adding, she has always had a great "creative process" working with her actor-filmmaker husband. "Maa" also stars Indraneil Sengupta, Kherin Sharma and Ronit Roy. It is presented by Jio Studios and Devgn Films, and is produced by Jyoti Deshpande and co-produced by Kumar Mangat Pathak. Besides "Maa", Kajol will also feature in action thriller "Maharagini" with Prabhudeva and Naserruddin Shah, Karan Johar's upcoming home production "Sarzameen", and season two of her series "The Trial". The actor working on back-to-back movies turned out to be an "interesting" experience. "I shot them back-to-back. I finished work on 'Sarzameen' and 'Maharagini'. Right now, the current thing is 'Maa' and then 'The Trial' season two. "I've been working for like 34 years now, and, I feel like in my 33rd year, I've worked more than I have in the last many years. So, it's been quite an interesting year," Kajol said.
