Rhea Chakraborty Opens Up About Her Time In Jail After Sushant Singh Rajput's Death: My Life Was In The Worst Hell

Rhea was arrested by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in September 2020 and was later shifted to the Byculla jail where she spent almost six weeks. She is currently out on bail.?

At an event, Rhea opened up about her jail term?and called it ‘frustrating.’ She said,?"So, you are basically removed from society and put as a number in prison because you are deemed unfit for society. So there itself, this personality or these things you’ve created about yourself are completely broken.” The actress also added that she was at an under-trial prison where everyone was innocent until proven guilty.

Chakraborty also spoke about the other women in jail.?“Seeing and interacting with them, I experienced a unique kind of love and resilience within those women. They found happiness in small things. They grabbed happiness when they got it. They know how to enjoy a moment, and they are some of the happiest people I have met,'' she said.

“It’s frustrating; they’re languishing, but they know when and how to catch that happiness. And it can be as small as a samosa on a Sunday. It can be as small as somebody dancing for them. So it’s just perspective; it’s how you look at it,” Rhea said further.?

Opening about her time in jail, Rhea said,?"At that point, yes, my life was in the worst hell it could have been. But heaven or hell is a choice in your head that you can make. It’s difficult to choose heaven each time. But the battle is of the mind, and if you have the strength and desire in your heart, you’ll most definitely battle the mind and win.”
