Deepika Padukone On Motherhood
At the WAVES 2025 summit, Deepika Padukone described how welcoming a child had reshaped her priorities, shifting her focus from years of a career-driven life to caring for “another human being.”
She said motherhood had been life-altering, grounding and deeply emotional, making her more present and appreciative of everyday moments.
She said, “I’m discovering this new life post-embracing motherhood. The minute you’ve had a child, you’re now responsible for another human being, and especially in the way I’ve led my life, it’s been so much about me – leaving home, my ambition, my career, and everything has been about my life and everything that I wanted for myself. And now, suddenly, you’re caring for this person who is dependent on you for everything.”
Padukone has said she wants her daughter to have a normal, secure childhood, away from the intense scrutiny that comes with belonging to a film family. She has often credited her own parents – especially her mother – for instilling the values and emotional resilience that guide her today, and says parenting has given those lessons a renewed sense of meaning.
