Deepika Padukone has been open about her struggle with mental health, and recently, her sister and professional golfer Anisha Padukone shared how she was unaware of her sister's mental health struggles for quite some time.
Anisha said, 'For me personally, I was not aware enough about the signs and symptoms to be able to understand what she was really going through. The fact that we didn’t live in the same city also didn’t not help, and I am really caught unaware and off guard.'
She added, “That is also when my own mental health journey begins. I start taking better care of my mental health. As an athlete, I always focus on physical health to some extent, but not so much on mental health.'
Deepika Padukone has spoken about her battle with depression and how her mother came to her rescue. She said, “For the longest time, I did not share it with anyone as I used to stay alone in Mumbai. When my mother came to see me in Mumbai and the day she was leaving for Bangalore, I suddenly broke down.'
Deepika will next be seen in Shah Rukh Khan-starrer King and Raaka, directed by Atlee, alongside Allu Arjun in the lead role.
