While interacting with Rhea on her podcast and opening up about his life experiences, Khan lauded her resilience and courage.

Upon hearing his opinion and praises, the Sonali Cable actress revealed that it was possible for her to remain strong because of her Army background. She shared that during her childhood days, when her father would leave, there was always a possibility that he might not return, so the family was taught to fight, never give up, and stay hopeful in dire situations. She went on to say how it took her years to come out of the grief after Sushant’s sudden death, before she felt ready to start the second chapter of her life.

Quoted by Bollywood Shaadis, the 32-year-old actress said, “It took me so long to start chapter 2 is because I was healing all this while. There was pain, anxiety, PTSD, and whatnot. And grief has a veto power over everything else. You could be talking to someone, and you get engulfed by grief out of the blue. There were some of the things, but today I feel that I have renewed energy. I feel like meeting people, my curiosity has been revived. After overcoming that, now I feel like the sun is rising again. I feel like doing new things.”

Shedding light on why she felt the need to start her own podcast, Chakraborty stated that she wanted to create a safe space to talk to others. Recalling a horrific incident, she shared, “I went on a podcast some time ago, and he promised me that ‘come, we will talk as friends; that person said, I won’t question you like a journalist, we are new media, we are podcasters’, but he made it all even worse for me. I didn’t let him release that podcast. At least, in the case of traditional media, I know how they are going to approach things, and I go prepared. It was that day that I decided that I want to create a safe space where I want to speak to people.”


For the unversed, after Sushant Singh Rajput was found hanging in his apartment, in June 2020, Rhea came under the scanner. She was criticised, ridiculed, and blamed for SSR’s death. She along with six others, including her brother, were accused of abetting his suicide. SSR’s case is being probed by CBI but no closure report has been filed yet.

On the work front, Rhea Chakraborty made a comeback to the small screens with MTV Roadies. She went on to launch her own podcast Chapter 4 on July 20, 2024.
