Mumbai, Jan 9 (IANS) Bollywood superstar Deepika Padukone, who was last seen in ‘Singham Again’, is expressing her concern over Larsen & Toubro’s chairman SN Subrahmanyan’s recent statement.

SN Subrahmanyan recently made a shocking statement as he urged his employees to work for 90 hours a week, and even report to work on Sundays.

Deepika, who is also a mental health advocate, has called out SN Subrahmanyan over his blatant disregard for labour laws in the country, and mental health.

She re-shared journalist Faye D’Souza’s post about the same and wrote, “Shocking to see people in such senior positions make such statements. #MentalHealthMatters”.

This is not the first instance of a businessman making such vague statements, and having unrealistic demands from India’s workforce. Earlier, Infosys co-founder N. R. Narayana Murthy had sparked a controversy when he asked the young Indians to work for 70 hours in a week to put the nation on the path of progress.

Last year, Deepika Padukone performed on the stage with Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh at his concert in Bengaluru.

In a video clicked by a fan, the actress was seen dancing along as the singer performed his song with Sia, ‘Hass Hass’, on stage. The two also danced on Diljit’s synth-pop track ‘Lover’.

This marked Deepika’s first public appearance after the birth of her daughter Dua. What made the gig special for her was the fact that it was held in her hometown. The Copenhagen born actress grew up in Bengaluru before she made her way to modelling.

She went on to build a highly successful career in Hindi cinema after her big debut in ‘Om Shanti Om’ opposite the Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan with whom she shares a stellar track record at the box-office.

In 2023, the actress delivered two blockbusters with SRK in the form of ‘Pathaan’ and ‘Jawan’, she had a cameo appearance in the latter. Both the films were highly instrumental in resurrecting Bollywood at the box-office after a lull induced by the pandemic.

Prior to ‘Singham Again’, the actress went pan-India, and was seen along with the titans of Indian cinema like Amitabh Bachchan, Prabhas, Kamal Haasan and Saswata Chatterjee in ‘Kalki 2898 AD’.
