9 Jun - Deepika Padukone has now found her first project since giving birth to her baby and it is going to be the upcoming Allu Arjun-starrer from Sun Pictures (currently known as "AA22xA6").

The studio shared the good news on social media on 7 June with a video of director Atlee explaining the story to the Bollywood actress, the storyboard of the movie, as well as several clips of Deepika doing the green screen shoots.

"The Queen marches to conquer! Welcome onboard!" the studio posted.

The announcement also came following the previous backlash Deepika had over her asking for better work conditions since becoming a mother. Her baby daughter Dua was born last September. Many took to the comments to praise the studio and the director for respecting the actress' wishes, with one saying, "That's how a director respect queen Deepika."

Another posted, "Atlee Silently Roasted Sandeep Reddy Vanga."

It was last week that Deepika was reported to have been dropped from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's film, "Spirit" after he accused her of unprofessional behaviour. Reports suggested that the actress demanded an eight-hour workday, profit-sharing and a hefty remuneration.
