After a four-year absence, transgender actress Bobby Darling has returned to Mumbai, now facing a desperate need for work. In a recent interview, Bobby revealed she has even reached out to prominent producer Ekta Kapoor, pleading for employment. The actress candidly shared that she is currently battling depression and fears she might resort to extreme measures if she doesn’t secure work soon.
While speaking in an interview, Bobby Darling disclosed her direct appeal to Ekta Kapoor, reminding her of her past role in the 2005 film Kyaa Kool Hain Hum, which Kapoor produced. “Of course, Riteish (Deshmukh) ka usme bohot accha kaam tha, sabka teamwork hi hota hai. Main koi Aishwarya Rai (Bachchan) toh nahi hoon,” Bobby stated, acknowledging the collaborative nature of filmmaking.
Elaborating on the message she sent to Ekta, Bobby added, “Maine message karke bola, ‘I touch your feet. I am going through a very tough phase. I am looking for work. Please give me work. Mujhe frustration ho raha hai, main depression mein hoon. I will commit suicide, shayad main Sushant (Singh Rajput) ki tarah suicide kar loon.”
Bobby also revealed that her fear of taking such extreme steps initially led her to leave Mumbai. However, now that she is back in the city, she is openly seeking opportunities. “Kaam maang rahi hoon, kaam toh chahiye hi. Bombay mein rehke agar kaam nahi kiya toh kya kiya? Wapas bar mein dance nahi kar sakti hoon main,” she emphasized, indicating her resolve to pursue acting.
Bobby Darling is recognized for her appearances in films such as Page 3, Chalte Chalte, and Kyaa Kool Hain Hum. Her television credits include shows like Kasautii Zindagii Kay, Aahat, Yeh Hai Aashiqui, Sasural Simar Ka, and Krishnakoli.
