Deepika Padukone recently celebrated a big moment in her life—she became a mother for the first time! The actress welcomed a baby girl on September 8, 2024. This wonderful news has brought joy not just to her but also to her many fans who admire her talent and grace. In her first public appearance since becoming a mother, Deepika glowed with happiness. On World Mental Health Day, she took the time to share her feelings about burnout and sleep deprivation.
Deepika spoke during a special lecture series organized by the Live Love Laugh Foundation, which she started in 2015 to raise awareness about mental health issues. She joined entrepreneur and media mogul Arianna Huffington to discuss the challenges that many people face regarding their mental well-being. Deepika has been open about her own mental health struggles, particularly her battle with depression, which she revealed in 2014.
In a video of their conversation, Deepika talked about how being sleep-deprived and burnt out can impact decision-making. She shared, “When you are sleep-deprived or burnt out, the decisions that you make… I can tell that my decision-making is getting affected to some extent.” This honest comment shares the importance of taking care of oneself, especially for new mothers who are learning to juggle many responsibilities.
Deepika also highlighted how people often hold onto negative emotions, especially criticism. She said, “It’s absolutely normal and human to feel pain, anger and some of these extreme emotions and learning from that.” Her message reminds us that it’s important to handle criticism in a positive way and to work on personal growth, showing patience throughout the journey.
Deepika Padukone and her husband, Ranveer Singh, one of Bollywood’s most loved couples, are excitedly embracing parenthood together. Fans are also eager to see them back on screen in their upcoming film, Singham Again releasing on November 1, 2024, after previously working together in 83 and Cirkus.
