Shaheen Bhatt, sister of actor Alia Bhatt and daughter of director Mahesh Bhatt has penned a book on her 20 year long battle with depression. 'Never Been (Un)Happier' is Shaheen's extremely personal and poignant writing on living with clinical depression.

What started out as an Instagram post in 2016, turned into a project and a book that has been hailed as a searingly honest piece.

In a conversation with FIT, Shaheen opens up about her process, her family, navigating relationships while battling depression and why she considers the word 'happy' overrated.
