Ratan Raajputh opens up about her battle with depression after father's death: "Did not want to take any medication"

For the unversed, Ratan was last seen in the TV show Santoshi Maa, which was telecasted in 2018. Recently, she opened up about the hiatus and what kept her away from the biz. She explained that she had taken a break after her father passed away. She also went on to talk about how she suffered from depression and decided to focus on her well-being for a while. 

The 35-year-old actress asserted, “After Santoshi Maa got over in 2018, just a day later, I lost my father and that was a terrible blow for me. I went into depression and did not want to do anything. When you say depression, it does not just mean having mood swings or crying,” in a conversation with Bombay Times. 

Elaborating, she said, “There are other things as well. I did not want to take any medication, so I decided to study psychology to understand the subject better, apart from consulting psychologists about my condition. I also started travelling and decided to explore village life. I left Mumbai for a while.” 

Concluding, Raajputh added, “I enjoyed sharing videos about my travels and journey of self-exploration.”

Coming to her work, Ratan mentioned, “I did not watch TV or web shows in the past few years even though I had two TV sets at home. Now it is time to get back to work and focus on new beginnings. But my time off made me understand that work is a part of your life, work is not your life.”

23 Years of Lagaan: “A famous painter heard 'O Paalanhaare' and told me, ‘Tum jhooth bolte ho. Ek atheist aisa bhajan nahin likh sakta’” - Javed Akhtar

One of the greatest films of all time, Lagaan (2001), completed 23 years on June 15. Starring Aamir Khan and Gracy Singh, it was a fictional period drama about a group of villagers learning cricket, a game alien to them, and playing it against the British. In the pre-climax, when the villagers fear defeat, they collectively pray to God. This is when 'O Paalanhaare' is played and it leaves viewers teary-eyed. The song took a life of its own and is one of the most loved film devotional songs of all time. Many are surprised to know that Javed Akhtar, an atheist, penned this track. At a show ‘Main Koi Aisa Geet Gaaon’, the legendary songwriter opened up about this song and confessed that he got this surprising reaction often. He also revealed how he responds to such comments in his trademark humourous style. Javed Akhtar said, “A famous painter, Chanda, called me and said, ‘Javed, tum apne aap ko atheist kehte ho. Tum jhooth bolte ho. Ek atheist...
