Director’s 18-Hour Workday Claim May Rekindle Debate Amid Deepika Padukone’s 8-Hour Demand

The first trailer of Ranveer Singh's new film 'Dhurandhar' has been released today. The trailer has increased the curiosity among the audience for this film. During the trailer launch, the director of the film, Aditya Dhar, spoke about the working hours. He described how the 'Dhurandhar' team worked 16-18 hours.

During the trailer launch event, director Aditya Dhar praised the entire team. He said that the cast and crew worked very long hours every day. From the actors to the HODs, assistants to the spot staff, everyone was as if they were ready to give their lives for this film. We worked 16-18 hours a day for a year and a half. No one complained about the busy schedule, saying, "Sir, you're making us work more." Everyone gave their 100%. That's how this film was made.

This statement from the director of Ranveer Singh's film comes at a time when Deepika Padukone's demand for an eight-hour workday has sparked a debate in the industry. On the one hand, Deepika Padukone's insistence on working eight hours has led to her losing out on some major films. However, she remains firm on her stand. Aditya Dhar's talk of working 16-18 hours could spark another debate.

Speaking of "Dhurandhar," directed by Aditya Dhar, is releasing in theaters on December 5th. In addition to Ranveer Singh, the film stars Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, and Sara Ali Khan in lead roles.
