Raashii Khanna Opens Up About Breakup Depression and Struggles With Weight

Mumbai, Mar 07 : Actor Raashii Khanna has opened up about a difficult phase in her life, revealing how a breakup and health problems affected her mental well being and physical fitness during the early years of her career.

The actress, who gained recognition through several Telugu films and has recently been working in Hindi and Tamil projects, shared her personal experiences during a recent interview. She spoke candidly about dealing with heartbreak while also struggling with weight-related challenges.

Emotional impact after relationship ended

Speaking about that period, Raashii said she faced criticism for her weight when she first entered the film industry. According to the actress, the situation became more difficult when a serious relationship in her life came to an end.

She revealed that the breakup had a strong emotional impact on her, pushing her into a phase of depression. The actress described the time as mentally exhausting, as she was trying to cope with personal heartbreak while continuing to focus on her career.

Health condition affected her fitness

Raashii also disclosed that she was diagnosed with a thyroid issue during that time, which caused rapid weight gain. The condition made it difficult for her to achieve the fitness results she was working towards.

Despite spending long hours in the gym and following strict workout plans, she said the progress was very slow. The actress even changed trainers and experimented with different routines but did not see significant improvement for nearly two years.

Personal happiness changed things

The actress explained that her life gradually began to improve when she found emotional stability again. She said entering a new relationship brought positivity and helped her regain mental peace.

With a calmer mindset and reduced stress, Raashii said her body started responding better to regular workouts. Over time, she noticed gradual changes and was able to regain her fitness.

She also acknowledged that weight fluctuations had affected some professional opportunities earlier, making her realise the importance of maintaining fitness in the film industry.

Appearance at celebrity wedding

Recently, Raashii Khanna was also seen attending the wedding celebrations of actor Allu Sirish and Nayanika Reddy. Several members of the prominent Allu–Konidela family were present at the ceremony, including Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan, Pawan Kalyan and Suriya.

The actress was spotted wearing a green saree during the event, which was attended by many prominent figures from the South Indian film industry.
