‘How Will She Heal From This’? Rhea Chakraborty’s Mother Asks While Reacting To Her Daughter’s Bail, Says ‘She’s Considered Suicide As Family Has Been Destroyed’

Bollywood actress Rhea Chakraborty on Wednesday was granted bail nearly a month after she was jailed for the drug case.

Actress Rhea Chkraborty was granted bail by the Bombay High Court on Wednesday, after spending nearly a month at the Byculla Jail for drugs-related charges in the Sushant Singh Rajput death case. Reacting to her daughter’s bail, Rhea’s mother Sandhya Chkraborty, admitted that she contemplated suicide, and said that she hasn’t been able to eat properly or sleep on the bed ever since her children were arrested and put behind bars. In a telephonic interview with The Times of India, Rhea’s mother said: “What she has gone through... how will she heal from this? But she is a fighter and she must be strong.” She continued, “I’ll have to put her on therapy to help her get over this trauma and reclaim her life.” Mrs Sandhya Chkraborty further added, when Rhea came home, she told her parents to stay strong. Sandhya said that despite being attacked verbally and physically, Rhea maintained her ‘dignity’. “Yet, even after she came home today, she looked at us and said: ‘Why do you look sad, we have to be strong and fight this’,” she said. While, responding to recent reports of their neighbour claiming that Sushant had dropped Rhea off at her home on June 13, a day before he died, Sandhya said that the claims can easily be disproven if the authorities investigate Sushant’s location via cell towers. Bollywood actress Rhea Chakraborty on Wednesday was granted bail nearly a month after she was jailed for the drug case. Rhea was taken into custody by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in an alleged drug angle in the Sushant Singh Rajput case. On Wednesday, a court in Mumbai ordered that the actress be released on bail, her lawyer Satish Maneshinde said, calling it a victory for “truth and justice”. “The arrest and custody of Rhea was totally unwarranted and beyond the reach of law,” he said in a statement.
