Rhea Chakraborty is one of the most known names in Indian showbiz. She has been part of several movies like Mere Dad Ki Maruti, Sonali Cable, Dobaara: See Your Evil and Half Girlfriend, among others. Rhea's life went for a toss when she was arrested for drug case involvement following the death of her former boyfriend, Sushant Singh Rajput. The actress was in prison for a fortnight, and it left a huge impact on her mental and physical well-being.
Rhea Chakraborty recently sat for an interview with Humans Of Bombay, wherein she shared how her parents dealt with her imprisonment. On her return, she noticed that her parents and a couple of her friends had gained weight. On asking, they shared that while she was in jail, they used to drink and eat together to keep each other company. In Rhea's words:
"One of my friends – couple friends – they used to drink with my dad and eat food with them every night while we were inside. When I came out, 'I'm like, why have you gained so much weight? Kameeno, main waha jail mein thi aur tumlog yaha khana khaa rahe ho, weight put on kar rahe ho. They were like, 'No, dude. We were just trying to make uncle-aunty eat and drink and make them feel a little normal. And I was, like, 'Oh wow!'"
In the same conversation, Rhea added that a few of her friends were always there to support her, which made her feel empowered. She emphasised that you can face any obstacle if you have friends like them. She also praised Shibani Dhandekar for being her biggest strength. Rhea further added:
"I was surrounded by superpowers of women. Some of my girlfriends – the way they stood by me – my God! You don't need anything else – you can have one true friend in life and that's enough. Shibani (Dandekar) was that for me. The way Shivani stood for me was enough for me to know that the whole world can be against me but I have one friend."
Rhea Chakraborty's journey has taken a new turn as she steps into the fashion industry. Her clothing label, 'Chapter 2', launched in partnership with her brother, Showik Chakraborty, Harpreet Singh, and Jinita Seth, is a significant milestone in her entrepreneurial journey. The brand's official launch on Independence day on August 15th marked a new chapter in her career.
