Neetu Chandra Confesses Having Suicidal Thoughts: Have No Work After Working With 13 National Award Winners
Actor Neetu Chandra made her Bollywood debut with Priyadarshan’s 2015 comedy film - Garam Masala. She was seen portraying the role of Sweety, an air hostess. The film also starred Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, Rimi Sen, Neha Dhupia, Rajpal Yadav, and John Abraham. She also found success and popularity, with her stints like Traffic Signal, One Two Three, Oye Lucky Lucky Oye, Apartment, and 13B’ among others. 

However, her charm seem to fade away and she faced suicidal thoughts. Now, during the recent interaction, she opened up about her mental struggles and revealed that she has no work currently. 


Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, Neetu shared how Sushant Singh Rajput passed away and questioned why an artist gets recognition posthumously.

She said, "Should I suffocate myself to death? Kya logon ke jaane ke baad hi unke kaam ko saraha jaata hai? Jo Sushant ne step uthaya..bahut logon ko aisa khyaal aate hai." Further, asked if she had come across having such suicidal thoughts, Neetu said, "Yes it does."

Neetu also recalled that a big businessman demanded that she became his salaried wife and he also said that she will give her ₹25 lakh per month. 


"I neither have money nor work. I've become worried, I feel unwanted here after doing so much work," Neetu added. 

The actress shared that a big casting director from Bollywood once rejected her only an hour after auditioning her. “A casting director, who is quite famous but I don’t want to take their name, told me within an hour of the audition, ‘I am really sorry Neetu, this is not working out.’ You literally audition me to reject me so that you can kill my confidence,” she said.

Interestingly, Neetu made her Hollywood debut in the 2021 film, Never Back Down: Revolt.
