Deepika, who is a favourite actress of the masses, shocked everyone when she revealed that she was batting with depression. The actresss also admitted that due to her illiteracy about the matter, she ignored it initially. After her life's days weren't changing for the better she consulted a psychiatrist.

At the launch, she opened up that her friends and family helped during her difficult days.

Deepika's mother Ujjala Padukone said, "I detected the symptoms in Deepika and I thought it may be due to some boyfriend issue. But then I knew the depression is due to mental and physical stress and we realized that we should take help from a psychiatrist."

Does this mean Ujjala is blaming Deepika Padukone's ex-boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor for what she went through?
