Amid the ongoing controversy surrounding her exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s film Spirit, Deepika Padukone has addressed the situation with a focus on personal authenticity and inner peace.
During a recent appearance at Cartier’s High Jewelry collection event in Stockholm, Deepika shared her approach to handling challenging situations. She stated:
“What keeps me balanced is just being truthful, being authentic. Whenever I’m faced with complicated or difficult situations, to be able to listen to my inner voice and just stand by decisions that really give me a lot of peace is when I feel most in equilibrium.”
This statement comes in the wake of reports suggesting that Deepika’s departure from Spirit was due to disagreements over working conditions, including her request for an 8-hour workday. Following her exit, director Sandeep Reddy Vanga posted a cryptic message on social media, accusing an unnamed actor of violating an “unsaid NDA” and engaging in “dirty PR games,” which many interpreted as directed at Deepika.
Deepika’s emphasis on listening to her inner voice and standing by decisions that bring her peace appears to be a subtle yet firm response to the situation, highlighting her commitment to personal well-being and professional integrity.
