Rahul Mahajan said in the interview, “I have therapists who are helping me deal with my feelings. There’s too much stigma around seeking help through therapy in India, but I see no shame in doing that.” “It is like a big earthquake took place in my life. The tremors are still somewhere there. There is a lot of trauma, but life goes on. You’ve no choice but to be strong. I still have love and respect for her. The love never dies. I’m not in touch with her and I don’t even know where she is. But love doesn’t go away just like that,” he added.

Rahul also said he is scared to meet someone and fall in love as he is emotionally unavailable for the moment. He also called himself unfit and said he needed healing.
