The Story in Brief
National Award-winning actress Kriti Sanon has said her roles in Mimi and Do Patti taught her that characters leave a subconscious impact, making it essential to consciously switch off. In an interview with Times of India, she said actors constantly tap into emotions and must care for their mental and emotional well-being through meditation, therapy, or other support.
Sanon noted that she has sometimes shot for a comedy while dealing with personal lows. The actress last appeared in Cocktail 2, which earned Rs 147.63 crore globally.
The Indian Opinion
While some dismiss celebrity mental health talk as privileged, Sanon's point about emotional labour is valid for any profession that demands performance under stress. The real test is whether the industry will move beyond individual self-care to institutional support, such as mandatory breaks or on-set counselling. Will the next big star speaking up be enough to change production norms?
