Bollywood star Deepika Padukone is proving that pregnancy is no barrier to her professional commitments. The actress, who is expecting her second child, is continuing to shoot for Allu Arjun’s highly anticipated pan-India entertainer Raaka.

According to the latest reports, Deepika has already completed several crucial portions of the film, including intense action sequences, despite being seven months pregnant. Her dedication has become a major talking point in the industry.

Deepika had announced her second pregnancy while the film was already on floors. Although many expected the makers to pause her schedule or rely extensively on body doubles, the actress reportedly chose to perform most of the action scenes herself, minimizing the use of stunt doubles wherever possible.

The physically demanding shoot has surprised fans and industry insiders alike, with many praising Deepika’s commitment and professionalism. She is said to be focused on wrapping up her portions before taking a maternity break.

Directed by blockbuster filmmaker Atlee, Raaka is one of the most-awaited Indian films currently in production. Headlined by Allu Arjun, the film has generated massive buzz ever since its announcement, and Deepika’s dedication to completing her schedule has only added to the excitement surrounding the project.
