News

By P T I
Actor
Chitrangda
Singh
believes
it
is
important
to
focus
on
the
mental
health
of
women
during
the
lockdown
and
the
whole
family
needs
to
come
together
to
help
her.
The
actor
also
urged
women
to
not
push
themselves
too
hard
to
take
care
of
their
families.
"The
mental
health
of
the
women
in
the
family
affects
everyone
and
it's
important
to
encourage
people
to
talk
about
it.
People
should
absolutely
not
make
women
feel
guilty
about
having
any
kind
of
issue
or
stress
or
anxiety.
There
is
no
bravery
in
fake
toughness.
We
all
are
weak
at
times,
and
it's
good
to
make
people
feel
that
it
is
all
okay
and
normal.
I
believe
the
very
important
step
is
to
talk
about
it
in
the
first
place," Chitrangda
said
in
a
statement.
She
said
everyone
in
the
family
needs
to
share
the
workload
and
take
care
of
the
mental
well-being
of
each
other.
"It
won't
be
difficult
if
the
workload
of
the
family
is
distributed
(between)
all
the
members
of
the
family.
I
suggest
one
could
help
by
managing
the
daily
chores
or
taking
turns
to
help
with
the
kitchen
or
the
kids.
Also,
it
is
extremely
important
to
find
some
time
to
talk
to
her
(women
at
home)
and
know
how
she
is
managing
or
feeling
physically
and
mentally," she
said.
The
Bazaar
actor
said
during
the
lockdown
she
is
writing
a
script
for
a
short
movie
and
making
Tik
Tok
videos
for
her
fans.
She
will
next
be
seen
in
Sujoy
Ghosh's
Bob
Biswas
alongside
Abhishek
Bachchan.
The
film
produced
by
Shah
Rukh
Khan's
Red
Chillies
Entertainment,
will
see
Abhishek
playing
Biswas
and
it
is
said
the
movie
will
serve
as
spin-off
to
the
2012
thriller
Kahaani.
