The eighth season of Koffee With Karan was premiered on October 26 by Karan Johar. The most popular B-town pair, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, were the first visitors the filmmaker welcomed to the sofa. For those who don’t know, Padukone is the founder of the Live Love Laugh organisation and has frequently talked about her mental health. Karan Johar revealed some startling information regarding his battles with mental health during the talk.
In response, Johar stated that he experienced a panic attack at the celebrity-studded opening of the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC). The director claimed he did not know what to do when he suddenly began to perspire heavily.
He was having trouble staying still, so Varun Dhawan, who was also there, escorted him to a vacant room and assisted him in getting dressed. Johar went home and sobbed himself to sleep, he continued, “My hands were shaking. I did some breathing exercises and I was confused if it was a cardiac arrest or what. I got out of my long and elaborate jacket and I left in half an hour. I just went to my bed and I wept. I just cried and I didn’t know why I was crying, he said in KWK 8.
As the show went on, Karan Johar also disclosed that he was under pressure since Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani was about to premiere. He said he was still taking his meds.
When Deepika Padukone revealed about her depression
The actor has always supported mental health issues. Padukone stated that she sobbed, fainted, and contacted Ranveer Singh for assistance in the first episode of KWK 8. Singh, who was her boyfriend at the time, came to comfort her, she continued.
