With Passport Restored by Bombay High Court, Rhea Chakraborty Speaks About PTSD and Recovery

She frames the court-ordered relief as a step toward normalcy following years of restrictions from the 2020 drugs investigation.

Overview

  • On September 30, the Bombay High Court permanently relaxed Rhea Chakraborty’s bail conditions and directed the Narcotics Control Bureau to return her passport.
  • The passport had been seized during the 2020 drugs probe linked to the investigation following Sushant Singh Rajput’s death.
  • Speaking on World Mental Health Day, she said having the document back restores a sense of freedom and signals a return to everyday life.
  • She described living with PTSD, recounting panic responses, lactic acid buildup in her calves, gut issues, and lifestyle changes she adopted to cope.
  • Chakraborty said three-and-a-half years of therapy were crucial to her recovery and urged greater acceptance of treatment as she warned of widespread anxiety among young people driven by hustle culture.
