Well, recently, the actress offered some interesting insights.
In a recent interaction with Pinkvilla, actress, Ridhi Dogra was asked who she turned to for support when she felt low. Well, the actress revealed that she usually tended to keep her problems to herself. However, she also stated that she had a few close confidants she could count on, including her brother, Akshay Dogra. Ridhi revealed that her brother had always been her 'go-to person,' jokingly adding that he was the only one who could handle her stress.
Apart from her brother, Ridhi stated that she had several sweet, kind friends she could always reach out to, one of them being television mogul, Ektaa Kapoor. The actress opened up about turning to the producer for guidance whenever she felt anxious, nervous, or needed a broader perspective.
Ridhi added that many of her school friendships had stood the test of time, making this old circle of pals one that she could always rely on. However, the most interesting part of the conversation was when Ridhi named her ex-husband, Raqesh Bapat as one of the people she could always run to in times of need.

"Currently, I am open to good work and want tofocus on that. I need to be the best person and feel complete so that when I do find someone, I can make that relationship perfect. I want to be surrounded by good people and be empowered in such a way that I can share my silences with someone."
What do you think about Ridhi Dogra’s revelation that Raqesh Bapat was still one of her closest friends?
