Actress Deepika Padukone spoke about big-budgeted films and how they don't excite her. She explained "ticking all the boxes", and said, "Honestly, how much more fame, how much more success, how much more money? It's not about that anymore." She added, "It's not about ₹100-crore films, or ₹500-₹600 crore ones...that doesn't excite me. What excites me is empowering other talent."
