Mumbai: Kangana Ranaut might have termed Karan Johar the flagbearer of nepotism, but Deepika Padukone is surely the flagbearer of depression.

The actress had openly spoken about her depression phase and how she coped with it. In fact, Dippy even opened an NGO Live, Love, Laugh' foundation for the same purpose.


Salman Khan was recently asked about depression, to which he answered, "I can't afford that luxury of being depressed or sad or emotional because no matter what I am going through, it works against me.

At a recently held panel discussion, Deepika expressed her views saying that depression is not a luxury and it is important to break the myth.

She said, "When we were talking about more celebrities coming out, there is also a misconception that depression happens to people who are successful. I want to clarify that it can happen to anybody from any field, irrespective of their socio-economic background. Depression is sometimes perceived as a luxury. People think that those who have too much time or money get into depression. I think it is very important to break that myth.

Looks like Deepika was fuming with Salman's comment. This however isn't the first time that Salman called trouble for himself by expressing his views.

And Salman was right. Depression is a luxury for rich people and the likes of DP to use for their own publicity. Poor people have no time to diagnose or treat themselves if they suffer from depression. Its a rich people fad to have a shrink and to be "labeled" as something so that they can stand apart from others and have something to discuss at parties.

I am sorry but you know diddly squat about depression. Don't make light of a real disease just because you don't like an actress. You are lucky you don't know anyone or have lost anyone to this. Depression is real and can affect anyone from any walk of life or economic strata.

^^And Salman should be the LAST one talking about depression & luxury seeing how he is the richest actor in BW & has the luxury of ordering about people as & when he likes!!!! Hate someone as much as you like, but don't you DARE make light of a debilitating mental condition that affects tonnes of people!! The heartlessness & ignorance on this forum is bloody astounding. All because you hate a random actress. 👏

M glad Deepika addressed this issue... Depression is a disease and takes lives of people... the rich if diagnosed can take treatment but the poor who can't atleast would have the support of their family to be able to recognize the disease and help them get better...
Tumhari Sallu shud be the last person to address abt depression...

It seems like after this Deepika will never work with Salman. That's no good.
