Jasmine Sandlas, the celebrated singer known for her contributions to the Dhurandhar film franchise, has shared a deeply personal story about her past struggles with alcoholism and emotional challenges. Despite her current success, Sandlas revealed that her journey was marked by hardship, including a difficult childhood and battles with addiction.
In a candid conversation with podcast host Ranveer Allahbadia, Sandlas reflected on the complex phases of her life. She explained that growing up was not easy and that she faced several emotional hurdles without much guidance or support. “I struggled a lot,” she admitted. “Life happens. It is a lot for the parents, but also for the children. We need guidance and nourishment… Why are parents so tough on their children? When life really hits you, you do look for support.”
Sandlas expressed regret over her drinking habits during a challenging period of two to three years. She said that despite being famous and successful, she was dealing with intense personal issues, including family breakdowns and the loss of her father. “I drank more than I should have, and I regret it, but it was important for me at that time,” she said.
The singer also spoke about the emotional wounds from her childhood, describing how repeated heartbreaks from her parents left lasting scars. “They broke my heart unknowingly many times, so there is resentment. I love them, but when a child’s heart breaks, it remains broken,” Sandlas shared. She described a lifelong search for a sense of home and safety that she felt was missing during her formative years.
