The video resurfaced when Deepika recently raised an issue that male stars in Bollywood rarely work beyond eight hours or on weekends. Although she didn’t name anyone specifically, an old video of Abhishek Bachchan discussing Akshay Kumar’s eight-hour work schedule is now being talked about.  The viral video is from one of the episodes of Kapil Sharma’s laughter show, and Abhishek says, “Pack up hote hi, most excited person, Akshay Kumar. Aath (eight) ghante se zyada kaam nahi karte hain yeh. Subah saath (seven) baje aayenge set pe… turant meter chaalu.”

Deepika had entered into a controversy over her call for an 8-hour work shift, after stepping away from Vanga’s Spirit and Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2.  Deepika reportedly asked for an eight-hour work shift, which the makers did not approve.
