After serving as chairperson for MAMI, actor Deepika Padukone has decided to part ways with her position, issue a statement and chalk-up her work commitments as a reason for quitting.
Deepika took to her social media platforms to share the news. She issued a statement, which read, “Being on the board of MAMI and serving as chairperson has been a deeply enriching experience. As an artist, it was invigorating to bring together cinema and talent from all over the world to Mumbai, my second home”
“I have come to realise however, that with my current slate of work, I will be unable to give MAMI the undivided focus and attention it requires. I depart knowing that MAMI is in the best hands possible and that my bond and connection with the academy is one that will last a lifetime,” she wrote in a note.
On the work front, Deepika will be seen in a special role in Ranveer Singh’s 83. She is currently shooting for Shakun Batra’s untitled project, which also stars Ananya Pandey and Siddhant Chaturvedi.
Deepika also announced The Intern’s official Hindi remake in which she will star opposite Amitabh Bachchan. The two had earlier worked in Piku.
