That’s when the speculations began that maybe the Chennai Express actress was faking it. Many thought that she must be promoting some movie or brand through this revelation. But according to the actress it was very nasty for people to talk like that when she was truly suffering.

On a recent podcast with Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, Deepika spoke about how people made fun of her depression and assumed that she was just lying. In fact the actress didn’t even know she was depressed until her mom brought it to her attention.
