“If I chose to have a child, then I must take responsibility first,” she said.
“I believe as an industry as a whole, we can have new pathways to enhancing our market value. I think the industry is so focused on creating creative value that it doesn’t look at market value,” reflecting on her own experiences in the industry, and her perspective on balancing work and family, Smriti was quoted as saying by India Today.
When asked about Deepika Padukone’s 8-hour shift row, she stated that she doesn’t want to get embroiled in controversies as everyone has their own perspective.
“I would not be naive enough to get involved in such ‘stupidity,'” she said
She added, “Today, I understand that if I consistently don’t turn up for my producer, they will suffer a huge loss, and it’s not fair to them. If I don’t turn up to work, 120 people do not get a pay cheque that day. It’s unfair to 120 families. So, my way of viewing my work and my work product is very different.”
