Earlier, this topic had sparked quite a buzz when the actress Deepika Padukone had demanded an eight-hour work shift. Thus, this started a discussion in the industry.


Renuka Shahane’s Take On Eight-Hour Work Shift


In a formal conversation with Hindustan Times, the actress Renuka Shahane said, ‘I do not want to make a general statement on it because I feel that there are even some male actors who would like to minimise hours, not just the female actors. A lot of them have come out and said that they want to spend time with their families. In this context, it is a difficult thing to say, because it is a matter of individual choice.’



Also, the actress said, ‘I know a lot of working mothers who are going to work. In daily soaps for 18-hour shifts, and they manage their child by taking who am I to say anything about that? If the producers accept that, it’s their prerogative. There should not be a compulsion as there might be mothers who want or ned to work for 18 hours. It is quite an individual thing.’




Renuka’s Work Front Update


On the work front, Renuka Shahane was last seen in Tejas Prabha Vijay Doskar’s Marathi film ‘DevManus’ co-starring Mahesh Manjrekar, which was released in theatres in the month of April.
