The Gehraiayaan actress admits her struggle with mental illness and how her mother came to the rescue. Deepika says her mother recognized the signs and symptoms of the depression because it ‘just happened out of the blue.’

She further went on to say, ‘I was on a career-high, and everything was going well, so there was no apparent reason why I should’ve felt the way I was feeling, but I would break down for no reason.’
