In a profoundly emotional conversation on Rashmi Desai’s podcast Rashami Ke Dil Se Dil Tak, television actress and close friend Arti Singh opened up about the significant emotional and mental toll following the passing of her Bigg Boss 13 friends, Sidharth Shukla and Shefali Jariwala.
Impact of Loss
Speaking candidly with Rashmi Desai, Arti shared how the loss of these beloved friends has stirred feelings of anxiety and vulnerability. “It is extremely scary and also makes me anxious,” she confessed, highlighting the shock of losing Sidharth and Shefali, both well-known figures in the television industry. “I feel extremely nervous and scared, and at times I even get emotional and call up Paras Chhabra to calm myself down. It just scares me,” she added.
Support from Husband
Arti elaborated on the role of her husband, Deepak Chauhan, in helping her navigate these turbulent emotions. “I have calmed down a lot after marriage. My panic and hyper moments have reduced significantly because Deepak is very sensible. He understands me and handles situations with maturity whenever I get overwhelmed. He stays calm and calms me down,” she explained.
