Pooja Bhatt celebrates eight months of sobriety
Mumbai
Aug 21, 2017
Actor-filmmaker Pooja Bhatt, who went
public about her drinking problems last year, says she is on the road
to recovery and has not touched alcohol in the past eight months.
Pooja on Monday tweeted with a photograph: "Oh and today is eight
months of sobriety for me! Have come a pretty long way baby! Here's to
the rest of the journey! One day at a time."
Pooja quit drinking on Christmas last year, and has addressed her
issues on several public forums.
In one such forum, she had said: "I stopped drinking by first
acknowledging that I had a drinking problem. Because you are a woman
and you live in a society where they are always taught or forced to
brush things under the carpet.
"We tend to bury this shameful habit that we have of covering it up and
say, 'Oh, we don't have a problem, it is somebody else's and I am not
that drunk'."
