Rhea Chakraborty marked a fresh beginning with the debut of her podcast show, “Chapter 2,” on Saturday. In the inaugural episode, she engaged in an open conversation with her first guest, actress Sushmita Sen, delving into her personal life, financial status, and the polarized public opinion following the death of Sushant Singh Rajput.
Addressing the curiosity surrounding her income, Rhea clarified, “People are confused about what I do for a living anymore. I am not acting in films; I do other things, I do motivational speaking, and that’s how I earn my money.”
Rhea explained that the podcast’s name reflects her life journey. “Everybody knows my ‘chapter one’ or assumes that they know it. I went through many phases of feeling different emotions, being different versions of myself. Finally, I am feeling more me, but a newer version, like a rebirth. I want to celebrate that with anyone who has a ‘chapter two.’ It’s okay to have a chapter two, to start again, to move on in life. I want to celebrate change.”
In the same episode, Rhea spoke about her “superpower” of polarizing any room she enters. “I often joke that I have a big superpower. I enter a room and I can polarize it! Half of them would think, ‘She has done something, she is a witch, she practices black magic,’ and the other half would think, ‘She’s a strong girl who fought through it, she had courage.’ I can sense it the moment I enter a room. I will experience this at the dentist’s clinic, the gym, the airport. This has also made me understand that it doesn’t matter. Those who love you, great, those who hate you, that’s also okay, it doesn’t matter.”
In September 2020, Rhea was arrested and sent to Mumbai’s Byculla Jail on drug charges related to the Sushant Singh Rajput case. She was accused of procuring and supplying drugs to the late actor but was granted bail after 28 days. Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Bandra apartment, Mumbai, in June 2020.
Rhea Chakraborty has participated in reality shows like “TVS Scooty Teen Diva,” “Pepsi MTV Wassup,” and “Gone in 60 Seconds.” Her filmography includes “Tuneega Tuneega,” “Half Girlfriend,” and “Jalebi.” She was last seen in “Chehre” alongside Amitabh Bachchan and Emraan Hashmi.
