Tina Recalls How It Was Difficult To Get Job After Uttaran As She Opens About Tough Phase: I’ve Had Depression

Tina Datta has been all over the headlines these days courtesy of her new show Hum Rahe Na Rahe Hum. The show happens to be a romantic drama wherein she will be seen sharing the screen space with Jay Bhanushali for the first time. And while Tina is excited about the show, she recently made heads turn as she spoke about the below phase of her life and admitted to battling depression.

During her recent interview with ETimes, Tina said, "Talking about highs and lows, I have always believed and I have always been vocal about it that an actor's it is not constant. Everybody has got highs and lows, you are not working throughout the year, especially for us actors who are being a part of daily soaps. When I signed off from Uttaran, because the character was etched in people's heart and people's mind, and it was very difficult for people to see me in another character. It was becoming very difficult for me to get a job. It was not because of anything else. After giving a hit show, it actually comes with a lot of perks, so it was so difficult for me to get work".

Furthermore, the former Bigg Boss 16 contestant revealed that she had reached a point where her confidence level was zero. "There have been times where I barely had money. So there have been highs, there have been lows, I have had depression also in my life where I had consulted a psychologist. My confidence level was zero. I am not ashamed and I don't shy away from saying such things because these are just phases of life," Tina added.

However, Tina is a firm believer in not giving up on life and is once again ready to take over the television screens with her uber cool avatar of Surili. To note, Hum Rahe Na Rahe Na Hum is an adaptation of the popular Turkish series İstanbullu Gelin, known as Bride of Istanbul.
