Hailing from Budhana village in Muzaffarnagar district, Uttar PradeshNawazuddin said that no one in his village is diagnosed with depression and he came to know about mental health related topics such as anxiety and depression and bipolar disorder after coming to the city.
These statements of the actor have put him in the soup. A Twitter user wrote, “What a disheartening comment from @Nawazuddin_S #Depression is not determined by age, gender, background, profession, ethnicity or domicile. #Mental health conditions do not discriminate and neither should we.” Such generalization is dangerous, illegal and misleading.” Another tweet read, “Nawazuddin Siddiqui says depression is an urban concept born of privilege: ‘Nobody gets depression in villages’ Well, let’s ignore farmer suicides and assume that You are correct. If something is urban concept – do we ignore it because it is urban??” Another user wrote, “Brother villages have too many issues regarding this… In fact in my training many villagers are suffering from Schizophrenia, OCD And have seen suffering from psychosis. There are many issues that go unnoticed, thinking that depression is the only mental health issue and it is all about cities!!
