Deepika Padukone often talks about mental health. In a lecture series this year, she talked about lack of sleep. She said that she is not able to take decisions properly even when she is very tired.
Deepika Padukone became a mother last month. She gave birth to a lovely daughter. On World Mental Day, she gave a lecture series in which she talked about lack of sleep and its side effects. She said that when one does not get enough sleep or feels burnt out, then one’s decision-making ability is also affected.
Not sleeping causes stress
Deepika was talking to Ariana Huffington in the Live Love Laugh Foundation’s lecture series. Her video is on YouTube. Deepika said, ‘When you don’t get enough sleep or are unable to take decisions, now I actually feel these things. I know there are some days when I am feeling stressed or burnt out because I haven’t been able to sleep properly. I realize that to some extent my decision-making ability is affected.
Don’t let criticism take over
In another part of the conversation, Deepika also talked about how people hold on to negative emotions, especially when they are criticised. She said, ‘It is very normal for humans to feel pain, anger and learn from them. The important thing is how you learn from criticism and work on yourself in a positive way. You should be patient about it.’
Ranveer does night duty for the child
Deepika and Ranveer became parents to a daughter on 8 September. Recently, at the trailer launch of Singham Again, Ranveer had told that Deepika takes care of the child during the day and he has to do night duty.
