Many people believe that fame and riches automatically protect one from mental illness. However, that is not the case at all. In the past few years, we have seen that how many celebrities from the tinsel town have opened up about battling depression and how serious the problem is. The latest celebrity to talk about the same is Karan Singh Grover. The actor reveals that he faced depression at some point in his life.

“There is a reason why I want to talk about mental health. Because I have lived it. Depression can be caused because of many reasons and the root needs to be identified. It has been a difficult journey, maybe not for me but for my loved ones because I got great help and support from them. Bipasha was there. It is something that we need to speak about,” Grover shared at an event discussing mental health.

He added, “It is something that we need to accept and it is something we need to let go. It is very essential that everyone speaks about it. We all go through it at some level or the other, running into things, trying to make money, and all the stress that causes a lot of pressure in our minds which is not supposed to be there. This is not life, there is a lot more to it.”
