Radhika Apte Advocates for Shorter Workdays and Better Balance in Film Industry

Actress Radhika Apte has spoken out against long working hours in the film industry, advocating for shorter shifts and a better work-life balance. She revealed having multiple arguments with producers over refusing extended workdays, emphasizing that expecting professionals to go a week without seeing their children is unreasonable. Apte stated her non-negotiable boundary is a maximum 12-hour workday, including travel and preparation, and she prefers a five-day work week with weekly offs, noting that this stance has not always been well-received.
