"Two years back, my family had come to see me. They were about to leave and I was all alone in my bedroom, curled up. My mother walked in and asked if everything was okay, I said yes. She asked again if it was work or something else that was bothering me, I said no."
She thanked her mother for always being there for her.
"She asked me so many times that I felt myself choking and I broke into tears. I want to tell my mother that if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be here. Thank you for being with me all through the way. Thank you to my sister, my father, and friends who supported my immensely," she said.
The Indian film actress launched a campaign #DOBARAPOOCHO and explained how important it is for people to help depressed individuals to talk about their state of mind.
"In the times we are living today, we have become so competitive, which is a good thing, but we have become extremely insensitive too. Through this campaign, I dedicate this to people who have survived depression, people suffering through it even now and urge the society to become more sensitive," the 30-year-old actress shared.
