Deepika Padukone is busy nesting and getting her home ready for the arrival of her first baby with Ranveer Singh. The couple is due in September 2024, and according to the latest buzz, Deepika will not be resuming work anytime soon. In fact, the murmurs are rife that she will not even hire a nanny like other celebrity mommies, and she is planning to focus her time on motherhood.
Deepika and Ranveer announced their first pregnancy in March 2024. According to a report by Times Now, Deepika Padukone has rejected the third season of The White Lotus because she wants to be a 'hands-on' mom and focus her time on nurturing her baby. This is one of the major reasons she has not been signing any new projects and won't be returning to work anytime soon.

The report further stated that Deepika would not be hiring any nannies or nanas for her child. A source close to the couple shared that Deepika won't be letting Ranveer share the baby's chores as she wants to be a hands-on mommy. The source said:
"Deepika loves children. She bonds with them instinctively. You can be sure there will be no nannys or nanas to look after her child when it is born…I don’t think Deepika would ever let Ranveer share in parental chores. She will be a 100% hands-on mother."
