When asked about how she dealt with everything post her divorce from Ritesh, Rakhi said, “You know, meri zindagi woh hai, jo kaal kotri mein kisiko daal do, there is no roshni, aur suddenly ek Suraj ki roshni aati hai, that is Adil (You know, my life was such, like when someone is put behind bars, there is no light there, and then suddenly, a ray of sunshine travels in, that is Adil for me).”

She added, “I used to not eat. I was in depression.” Sawant continued, “Frankly speaking, jab main, I had broken, past mein jab ex ka sab hua, totally broken ki like zindagi jeene layak nahi. Because, main apni zindagi mein ek bhi daag lagake nahi rakhna chahti thi. Ki koi meri zindagi mein aaye, meri shaadi toote (Frankly speaking, I had broken, in the past, when it all happened with my ex, totally broken like life was not worth living. Because I didn’t want any stain in my life. A stain like someone came into my life and my marriage fell apart).”

The actress further said that she does not want to take her ex-husband Ritesh’s name anymore. She mentioned that she feels shameful taking Ritesh’s name now.

Rakhi further shared, “So, I was broken. I didn’t know what to do. Bohot asaan lagta hai bolna ki thokar khao, giro, phir chadho, phir utho, itna aasan nahi hota hai karna (It is very easy to say that you face obstacles, then stand up strong and get up again, it is not that easy to do it though). You feel very depressed.”
