February 21, 2014

Aishwarya_RaiNew Delhi, Feb 21: Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is not making a comeback with director P Vasu’s film in which he claimed that the former beauty queen would be playing a Kalari warrior.

Aishwarya Rai’s spokesperson released a statement on the actress’ behalf saying: “This statement is in reference to the press release/rumoured attachment of Ms Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to Mr P Vasu’s film which has been doing the rounds very strongly today in the media and the industry.

With due respect to all the professionals concerned, I would like to state that this was one among the several scripts/ideas she has been approached for but there have been no confirmations at all. This “press release” came as a huge surprise to all of us. An E-mail clarifying this erroneous ‘press release’ has already been received by our office from the concerned parties.”

Earlier this week, southern filmmaker P Vasu, known for films such as ‘Chandramukhi’ and ‘Chinna Thambi, had said that he had signed Aishwarya for his upcoming untitled multilingual.

In a press release, Vasu had said: “Aishwarya was really impressed with the script. She will be seen in a never seen before powerful role. She will essay a Kalari fighter in the film and for the same she will undergo special stunt training.”

There were also reports that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has signed a film with hubby but nothing came out of it. Aishwarya was last seen in ‘Guzaarish’ in 2010 before going on her maternity leave.

New Delhi, Jun 20: Taking cues from her own experience, actor Deepika Padukone on Saturday emphasised that people suffering from depression cannot 'snap out' of the mental health condition.

Continuing with her daily practice of posting mental health messages for people struggling with depression and other issues, Padukone posted the recent message on social media.

"Repeat after me: You cannot 'snap out' of depression," Padukone wrote on Twitter.

Padukone had started with the series of mental health quotes after the sudden demise of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who committed suicide by hanging himself at his Bandra residence in Mumbai.

The 'Tamasha' actor started voicing her opinion on the importance of mental health through her foundation 'The Live Love Laugh Foundation' (TLLLF) in June 2015. Through the platform, the actor keeps launching nationwide awareness as well as destigmatisation campaigns.

Meanwhile, scores of comments followed on her latest post on mental health, where netizens too shared their take on mental health.
