Rashami Desai has one of the most popular faces in the Indian TV industry. The actress has spent nearly a decade in the industry and has also been part of many regional films. Recently, with her stint inside the Bigg Boss 13 house, she has won hearts. Now, the actress has also revealed that she had been suffering from depression for four years and that it was her work that kept her going!

Opening up about it, Rashami told Pinkvilla, “I was into deep depression almost for four years and I really wanted to leave the life. I did not want to see anybody’s face. You know when you expect something and get something else and the life will give you surprises in many ways and when you are not ready to lead the reality, you somehow find it difficult. Professionally I was doing good because I was always loyal to my work and I used to feel happy while working. In fact, work is the only thing which helped me come out of depression. It gave me more power and more life. Personally whatever I was going through I never let that affect my work. But my life has been an open book.”

Well, it is indeed bold for the actress to come out and talk about her mental health. Earlier, her Bigg Boss 13 housemate, Arti Singh had also revealed that she suffered from depression and panic attacks. Rashami is currently a part of Naagin 4.
