"I was at the peak of my career, and everything was going great, so there didn't seem to be a reason for why I was feeling the way I was, yet I would cry, and there were days when all I wanted to do was sleep because it was an escape. I dealt with all of that while occasionally considering suicide" stated Deepika Padukone.

She further said, "My parents are from Bangalore, and whenever they came to visit, I would often put on a brave face to show them that I was doing well. However, one day, as my parents were leaving to return to Bangalore, I had a breakdown. My mother questioned me about my hygiene, asking if it was a boyfriend, something at work, or something else.
