Deepika Padukone has undoubtedly been one of those actresses who has always come up and talked about mental health openly. At the first episode of Karan Johar’s Koffee with Karan Season 8 along with her husband Ranveer Singh, the couple discussed their journey in battling depression as a unit. 

Ranveer recalled the first time Deepika called him as she had a blackout and after visiting her he felt something was not right. He said, “When it first happened in 2014, I was shooting. She called and she said ‘I’ve had a blackout and I’ve had a fall. Can you come home?' I cut the call and I was on my bike and when I saw her, something wasn’t right. She’s in front, she’s looking at you but she’s not all there.”

Talking about the another incident, he added, “One day at breakfast she was sitting across me and she was just crying and there were just tears. Copious tears flowing down.” When he asked DP what happened, she didn’t know what to say to him. “She’s like ‘I don’t know’. I got up and went to her and I was like tell me. The reason I remember that vividly is because it was that moment where I felt completely helpless.”

Deepika further added that Ranveer has been a constant support to her and also shared about being on medication since 2014. She referred to him as her 'caregiver'.
