Kapil Sharma on depression

In an interview with Times of India, Kapil Sharma recently recalled the time he dealt with depression and how it affected him. “Every phase had its own charm. Childhood was different. When my father was there, that phase was different. After he died in 2004, life went completely off track. Then I got another chance on TV and came back on track. At 36, depression hit me hard, and I went completely down. People started saying, ‘He’s finished.’ Then I got married. Then the show came back. Then I did 300+ episodes again,” he added.
