Parineeti Opens Up About Depression And How Scared She’s Of Katrina On Koffee With Karan!

Parineeti Chopra got pretty candid when she took the ‘Koffee with Karan’ couch with Aditya Roy Kapur on Sunday night. She spoke her heart out about a lot of things and even opened up about her fight with depression.

Talking about her lowest phase in life, Parineeti revealed how she was tackling problems in all sectors of her life and had previously handled her lows badly. She said,

“After Daawat-E-Ishq and Kill Dil flopped, I hadn’t seen such a phase in my career. I went through a low phase on my personal front, my financial situation, my house, everything, I was so depressed. I have cried in front of you too Karan.”

 

But with the help of her close friends and family, she overcame her depression.

“But I had a couple of people who really stood by me and today when you asked me about being depressed ever, I could so happily say NO! But there was a time when I was depressed, really depressed. I have had a really tough time.”

 

And, all that made her a stronger person and she’s now proud of how well she’s handled it.

“I always thought that I was a strong person but my down time showed me that I was weak, but today I am a stronger person. Now if anything goes wrong I know I have the strength to handle it.”

Parineeti isn’t the first person to speak up about her battle with depression. Deepika Padukone and Karan Johar, too, openly spoke about it on public platforms.

But that’s not all Pari spoke of. Among other things, she even confessed how she is extremely scared of Katrina.

“I am scared of Katrina. That day she came to the gym, and I increased the speed of my treadmill. She was like, ‘What are you doing? How many minutes have you done? Five more minutes.’ During my weight loss year, I would just look at her songs. She’s my idol. That’s the kind of body I want.”

Who doesn’t aspire for Katrina’s abs, we wonder? And Pari did achieve ’em abs and made everyone go Jaaneman Aah!
