Deepika Padukone thanks PM Modi for taking up mental health issues.PM Modi recently interacted with the students during Pariksha Pe Charcha and spoke about mental health issues bringing awareness among them.
Following this, Deepika Padukone, thanked PM Modi for the initiative to address the burning problem. She posted "Thank you Honourable Prime Minister @narendramodi for your commitment towards the cause of mental health. I look forward to launching our episode tomorrow @tlllfoundation (sic),"
Deepika Padukone has been advocating for mental health awareness through her Live Love Laugh Foundation and she will be launching a special episode discussing the importance of mental well-being.
She shared a video in which she shared her own experiences with the children saying “Main bohot hi naughty bachchi thi. Main humesha sofas pe, tables pe, chair pe chad ke kudna... Kabhi kabhi hum bohot stress ho jaate hain. Jaise main Maths mein bilkul weak thi aur aaj bhi hoon." (I was a naughty kid at school who used to jump around sofas, tables, and chairs. We also get stressed a lot. Like I was so weak in Maths and still am.)
Quoting Modi’s book Exam Warriors, she emphasised the importance of expressing one’s emotions rather than suppressing them. "Jaise Narendra Modi ji ne apne kitaab Exam Warriors mein likha hain, ‘Express never suppress.’ (Just like how Narendra Modi ji has written in his book, Exam Warriors, 'express never suppress') So always express yourself whether it is with your friends, family, parents, teachers. Journaling is a great way to express yourself,"
