Mumbai: Bollywood actor Gulshan Devaiah has reacted to actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui's comments on depression as he had called it an "urban concept". Gulshan took to his social media handle and shared a link of the actor's interview where he could be seen talking about depression and how nobody in the villages is ever depressed and that people from the cities "glorify" their emotions.
Taking to Twitter, the Dahaad actor wrote, "Dritharashtra & Gandhari syndrome. I immensely respect the man for his craft but I'd not take him seriously on this issue." He then said that alcoholism and addictions exist in rural communities. Gulshan added, "If you even just look at alcoholism or addictions, they exist in rural communities and that's mental illness. No addict indulges in addiction because they love it. The addiction is a symptom, the real problem is the trauma they can't heal."
