Amid the buzz surrounding Deepika Padukone’s unexpected exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit, actress Madhoo Shah has come forward in support, calling Deepika’s move a sign of strength, not rebellion.
In an industry where silence is often mistaken for grace, Deepika’s firm stand on work-life balance and fair compensation has opened a conversation. “I applaud women who question,” said Madhoo in an interview, praising Deepika’s clarity and courage, especially as a new mother.
While some called her demands ‘too much,’ Madhoo reminded everyone — negotiations are part of knowing one’s worth. As Triptii Dimri steps in for the role, Deepika is off to headline a mega project with Atlee and Allu Arjun — proving once again, walking away can sometimes be the power move.
