I was lucky, says Deepika

Deepika Padukone revisited her struggle with depression on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Pariksha Pe Charcha 2025 programme on Wednesday. She recalled her breakdown in 2014, saying, “One day I started crying and I didn’t know what I was crying for... I just felt completely helpless and hopeless. I didn’t want to live anymore.” Deepika emphasised that depression is “invisible” and can affect anyone. She said that she was “lucky” that her mother, Ujjala Padukone, recognised the signs and suggested that she seek help from a psychologist.
