Now she knows what depression really looks like.” Additionally, the comic implied that the actor was suffering from “break-up waala depression.” Prior to this, Banti stated that she is the mother of a two-year-old. fan wrote, “That is Not even remotely funny. Making fun of depression. Attacking a women and accusing her of faking depression. Worst, it is uttered by a woman. That dialogue “aurat hi aurat ki sabse badi dushman hoti hain” comes to mind.”
A netizen added, “This is not funny at all. Shoutout to Deepika Padukone for getting help for her illness and turning her life around. I believe she also made people feel empowered to talk about mental illness. Even if her sharing her story helped one person, that is still one person she helped,” while another wrote, “Making fun of someone’s clinical depression is disgusting, but it’s even worse coming from a woman, all in the name of comedy. The lengths some people go to for male validation are truly pathetic. And what does she mean by ‘now she knows what real depression looks like now that she’s a mother’? Does she think postpartum depression is a joke?!”
