Deepika Padukone to skip ‘Project K’ launch at San Diego Comic-Con due to actors’ strike

Deepika Padukone will not be attending the San Diego Comic-Con event for the upcoming film Project K due to the ongoing actors' strike in Hollywood, according to a report. For the unversed, the strike, which began in May 2023, is being led by the Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) and the Writers Guild of America (WGA). The unions are protesting against the labour laws in Hollywood, which they say are unfair to actors and writers. Deepika is a member of SAG-AFTRA, and the union has instructed its members not to attend any promotional events for their films or to shoot for new projects until the strike is over. As a result, Deepika will not be able to attend the San Diego Comic-Con event for Project K. The strike is now in its third month, and there is no end in sight. It has already had a significant impact on Hollywood, with several films and television shows being delayed or cancelled.
