Diya Aur Baati actor Deepika Singh on her recent health scare: Improving and feeling much better
On May 1, actor Deepika Singh was rushed to a hospital after she lost consciousness. She shared the news of her hospitalisation on Instagram, which lead to speculations that she fainted due to excessive heat while shooting for her TV show Mangal Lakshmi. Deepika reveals was feeling weak and dizzy and it was later diagnosed that she was suffering from low blood pressure. When contacted, Diya Aur Baati (2011) actor shares, 'First of all, I didn't faint on the set of my show. I was at home where I felt uneasy and fell unconscious. That day my sodium level dropped drastically leading to the health scare. I want to reiterate that the incident didn't happen on the set while shooting, which was reported by many on social media.' Deepika adds, she was on a day's break when she had an acidity bout, eventually leading to other health issues. She clarifies she was hospitalised for a few hours and administered drip by her family doctor. The actor is already back on set and shooting, 'but not doing lengthy scenes yet'. She says, 'We all have certain health issues which have nothing to do with the rising temperature or heat. Also, low blood pressure does take time to recover; it takes a few days. I always want to be energetic and give it my all while shooting. I wanted to resume work because, as actors, it's our job to complete what's in hand on time. Also, being on set is something that keeps me happy. Now, I am back to work but obviously taking a few precaution and total care of myself." The actor made a comeback on television last year with her show Mangal Lakshmi after a decade. Deepika called the ten-year hiatus from the small screen a phase of learning and rejuvenation.

'We urge students and the general public not to circulate unverified videos or make speculative statements,' said Mohali SP (Headquarters) Ramandeep Singh, addressing concerns after a video from Universal College in Lalru went viral.

No one will be allowed to take the law into their hands,' the press note stated.

Well-known television actress, Deepika Singh talked about how her fashion sense has evolved over the years during an exclusive conversation. She told that she has always prioritised comfort over anything. The 'Mangal Lakshmi' actress said, 'Right from my childhood to today, I'm the same. Comfort is key for me. Of course, looks matter, but with the right hair and makeup, any outfit can shine. It's more about how you carry yourself. If you're not comfortable, it shows.' Deepika revealed that her off-camera style is extremely comfortable. 'I love wearing salwar kameez, especially since I'm also an Odissi dancer. I can dance anytime in it — it gives me flexibility and comfort,' she shared. When asked about any particular outfit or accessory that made her feel like a star on set, Deepika said, 'maxi dresses or midi gowns'. Deepika disclosed that she does not follow fashion trends that much, however, she really admires good actors. She shared, 'I watch their performances, their scenes, and I feel inspired by their craft'. Revealing if she has ever worn something completely impractical for a scene, Deepika refused saying that she has mostly played very simple and grounded characters, so she never had to wear something over-the-top or uncomfortable. Talking about her go-to red carpet outfit, and her favourite designer, the 'Diya Aur Baati Hum' actress stated, 'I have amazing stylists — Victor and Sohail. I really like their taste, and I trust them with my looks. Since I have a curvy body, I usually go for gowns or well-fitted dresses.' Deepika also opened up about her most memorable red-carpet moment saying that it was the 2011 Star Parivaar Awards. Divulging the details, she added, 'I wore a Rajasthani-style lehenga choli. My hair was open. It was my first appearance, and I was incredibly nervous — though I masked it by acting bubbly and smiling a lot!'
