Currently, Deepika Padukone is one of Bollywood's most gifted actresses. The actress has a number of intriguing movies in the works, following her appearance in Gehraiyaan with Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ananya Panday, and Dhairya Karwa. Even though she is one of the most well-known actors in Bollywood today, the issue of female pay discrepancy and unequal remuneration in the film industry also affects her. Deepika Padukone once argued against the practice of male actors being paid far more than female actors, which has long been a topic of discussion.
Due to the gender pay gap, Deepika Padukone admitted she declined a role in a movie
Deepika Padukone raised the issue of the compensation disparity between male and female Bollywood stars a few years ago. It has been an essential topic of conversation for a long, and in 2019, the actress talked about her experiences with gender pay discrepancy and how she once turned down a role because she felt it was unjust that she was paid less than her male colleague. "I am aware of my background and my worth. I know his movies haven't performed as well as mine. It was completely illogical. Based solely on that, she said I felt free to decline because I didn't think it was worth seeing.
She continued, "I'm prepared to make those choices for myself because I want to be able to sleep soundly at night. She said I don't think I'll be able to bear the concept that I was a part of a movie, contributed equally creatively, or added value to a movie while getting paid inadequately.
Deepika Padukone on Professional grounds
Deepika Padukone is set to star in some intriguing movies shortly. For Pathaan, she will reteam with Shah Rukh Khan, who she previously worked with on Om Shanti Om and Chennai Express. The movie, which also features John Abraham in the title character, is slated to hit theatres on January 25, 2023.
In Nag Ashwin's Project K, which also stars Disha Patani, she will be seen opposite Prabhas. Along with Hrithik Roshan and Anil Kapoor, Siddharth Anand's action movie Fighter also features Deepika. In addition to these movies, Deepika will co-star with Amitabh Bachchan in the Hindi version of The Intern.
