Ranveer Singh slams newspaper for “depression”


It is quite rare to see Ranveer Singh lash out but when he does, there must be a valid reason behind it.

A leading Indian newspaper claimed that the actor was suffering from depression when one of his friends opted for suicide a while ago. An unidentified “source” also mentioned Deepika Padukone going through a tough time due to the suicide. Singh took to Facebook to brand the report ‘Appallingly unethical’ and a pure example of ‘IRRESPONSIBLE JOURNALISM.’

Singh said, “Yo @dna @TusharrJoshi @SaritaTanwar … That was uncool, uncalled for and an outright disrespectful imposition.

Talk about Monday morning blues. Picked up yesterday’s paper and read this ‘fairy tale’ of my depression about an intensely personal tragedy. Much worse, it was shamelessly aligned with another person’s conflict and both these unrelated stories were made to connect for a sensational effect; deplorable to say the least. Figment of one’s imagination now taken to another level, in which there’s a dramatic twist about a therapist too! Ludicrous! Obviously, the journo didn’t bother to check the veracity of this ‘news’ with me or any one of my representatives- Appallingly unethical! Classic case of utterly IRRESPONSIBLE JOURNALISM. Is there any accountability? Or is the power of the pen now the terror of the pen?”
