Ajay Devgn opens up on mental health issues and seeking therapy

One of the finest actors in the Hindi film industry, Ajay Devgn is known for his powerful yet understated acting style and for his choice of scripts.

The Singham (2011) actor has appeared in over a hundred Hindi films over the years and won numerous accolades, including two National Film Awards and four Filmfare Awards. He can be currently seen in Runway 34 (2022) which he has also directed. The aviation thriller also stars Amitabh Bachchan and Rakul Preet Singh.

Recently, during a media interaction, Ajay opened up on the subject of mental health and ways of dealing with it.

Being an introvert, Ajay revealed that it is difficult for him to open up to others. Though this is one trait that he does not like about himself. Ajay still believes in solving his problems on his own.

While he admits that therapy is indeed the best way to opt for if one's mental health is suffering, it didn't work out for him. Nevertheless, Ajay adds that he is strong-minded and has battled his issues single-handedly.

On the work front, Amit Sharma and Boney Kapoor have cast Ajay Devgn to play football coach Syed Abdul Rahim in their pan-India sports magnum opus Maidaan, which is releasing on 3 June 2022.

This will be followed by Devgn's special appearance in Rohit Shetty's Cirkus which stars Ranveer Singh. Ajay also has a role in Indra Kumar's slice-of-life comedy Thank God with Sidharth Malhotra. Both the films are set for cinematic release in July 2022.
