When a leading actor chooses to set boundaries, the industry takes notice.
What began as one artist taking a stand on working hours has now cracked open long-suppressed conversations about working conditions in the Indian film industry. What Deepika Padukone may never have anticipated is unfolding—a ripple effect that could spark real, long-overdue transformation, especially around the mental health and well-being of artists and workers across the filmmaking ecosystem.

From those in the spotlight to the countless invisible crew members working punishing hours—this episode of The Artists Podcast is a timely, urgent listen.

We’re joined by mental health expert Dr. Avinash Desousa of the Desousa Foundation in a powerful conversation as part of our ongoing series: Artists and Mental Health.
Together, we ask: Why is it so important to speak openly about mental health in the film industry—and what needs to change?

Digs:
1) Productivity vs Work hours2) Designing and respecting the well being of all in the crew3) Steps Production companies should take when working longer hours4) Women in the crew and the boundaries5) Building strong interpersonal relationships based on compassion and respect.6) Women are equal participants in the industry
