Deepika Padukone had started this year by tweeting about her support for mental health awareness, after having confessed that she herself has battled depression in the past. ��Jacqueline Fernandez says she respects Padukone for having been so honest and for supporting such a cause.

“I am really glad that Deepika spoke about it because I don’t think people should be ashamed of the emotions they go through. ��I have always been someone who has advocated honesty and I really respect her for being vocal and honest… I guess every human being goes through it (depression),” Fernandez said��to��DNA India.

Fernandez also went on to add that she too has gone through low phases, feeling depressed. ��The actress cited examples such as when she came to India for the first time and times when she was sitting at home with no movies at hand.
