Deepika Padukone has expressed concern over recent comments made by SN Subrahmanyan the Chairman of Larsen & Toubro.
During a meeting Subrahmanyan suggested that employees should be ready to work seven days a week to succeed. Deepika criticized the statement on social media calling it “shocking” and stressing the importance of work-life balance and mental health.
Subrahmanyan later pushed for a 90-hour work week including Sundays, saying he would be “more happy” if employees worked on Sundays.
His comments have sparked a wider discussion about work-life balance following a similar suggestion by Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy in 2023 for a 70-hour work week.
Deepika wrote on her post, “Shocking to see people in such senior positions make such statements. #mentalhealthmatters (sic)”.
