New Delhi: Rhea Chakraborty is making a fresh start with her life. On Saturday, Rhea made her podcast debut with 'Chapter 2' which as per the actor-celebrity mirrors her current mental state.

About Rhea
Rhea's boyfriend and actor Sushant Singh Rajput passed away in 2020. Her life and family became the object of intense media scrutiny following his death. However, it now seems that she has taken control of her narrative.

Rhea Chakraborty podcast
Her first podcast was released on Saturday, which featured actor Sushmita Sen as the guest. During the conversation, Rhea said, "Ok, people are confused about what I do for a living anymore. I am not acting in films, I do other things, I do motivational speaking and that’s how I earn my money.”
Rhea said during her podcast that the name of the podcast is inspired by her life. She added, "Everybody knows my ‘chapter one’, or assumes that they know it. I did go through a lot of phases of feeling different emotions, being different versions of myself. Finally, I am feeling more me, but a newer version, like a rebirth. And I want to celebrate that with anyone who has a ‘chapter two’. I want to say that it is ok to have a chapter two, to start again, to move on in life. I want to celebrate change.”
At one point, Rhea also added that people 'hated' not her but her 'personality' she created for the public. She feels people had a problem with her image, which was created by her, and people understood it in a different manner.
