Actor Shehnaaz Gill recently got candid about dealing with loneliness , overthinking and learning to become her own support system. Speaking on a podcast with Pinkvilla, the actress shared that despite her success, loneliness is something she experiences regularly and believes it is a part of life.

When asked if she ever feels lonely despite achieving success, Shehnaaz said, “Loneliness toh roz hi feel hota hai. Agar chaar bande tumhare saath na ho toh loneliness hi feel hota hai. Sab travel kar rahe hain. Log aate hain, jaate hain, but aakhir mein akele rehna tumhein hi hota hai.”

The actress explained that she has learned to accept those moments instead of running away from them. “Apne mind ko relax karna padta hai ki haan, theek hai. Yeh cheezein hain, but thodi der ke liye hain. Loneliness feel karna koi buri cheez nahi hai. Kabhi-kabhi feel karna chahiye. Bahut cheezein seekhne ko milti hain. Sochne ka mauka milta hai ki main apni cheezein kaise sahi kar sakti hoon.”

She further shared, “Main overthinker toh hoon hi, but mujhe kabhi-kabhi apni overthinking achhi lagti hai. Mujhe lagta hai agar tum zyada sochte ho, stress lete ho toh cheezein achhi ho jaati hain. Agar main stress na loon aur ghar pe baithkar chill karun, toh gayi kaam se. Mujhe stress lena bahut zaroori hai.”

When asked if there is someone she turns to during difficult times, Shehnaaz revealed that she prefers relying on herself rather than expecting emotional support from others. “Humein sahare ki zarurat nahi hai. I don’t come with that mindset. Khud ka sahara bano.”

When asked if she has friends who help her through difficult phases. Responding honestly, Shehnaaz said she has only a handful of close friends, adding, “Bahut kam hain.”
