Actress Azmeri Haque Badhan said,It’s my 42nd birthday! What a beautiful journey it has been. After turning 40, life hit me hard a painful breakup and the turmoil in our country after the July uprising pushed me into a deep depression. It was my illness, yes, but those two moments triggered it intensely. I gained 17 kilos and thought, “That’s it my life is over.”
I felt sick, exhausted, and trapped inside my own body. My knees hurt, my back ached, and a constant cloud of sadness hung over me. Some days, I just stared at the ceiling for hours. Those days were dark. But no it wasn’t the end of the world. I survived. I always do. Then one day, a phone call came from a director I had always dreamed of working with. That call changed everything. It brought back my spark, my motivation, my will to fight again. Now, I exercise every day.
I feel alive again and I’m truly having the best time of my life. Because we are human beings, not superheroes. We break, we fall, we fail, we hurt, we heal, we rise and we survive. So wish me luck because my 40s have turned out to be the most beautiful chapter of my life so far. I am more mature, calmer, more composed. And most importantly I love myself deeply." on her social media account after share some of her new photographs with new look.
