Alia Bhatt opens up about having Attention Deficit Disorder
In a conversation with Allure, the actor said that because of her condition, everything needs to happen quickly for her.
Alia Bhatt recently revealed in an interview that she has Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and because of that she can’t spend over 45 minutes on a make-up chair and that was why she went for a minimum makeup look for her wedding.
However, she doesn’t let this condition affect her career. She has learned to manage and cope with ADD and even believes that she performs better when there is variety and new challenges in her work.
Alia’s Perspective on ADD:
Alia Bhatt openly admits to having ADD and emphasizes that sharing this information publicly makes her feel more comfortable.
She wants people to understand that having a condition like ADD is not something to be ashamed of. Instead, she encourages others who face similar challenges to seek the necessary support and not be afraid to talk about mental health struggles.
ADD or Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a chronic condition that is marked by an ongoing pattern of inattention or hyperactivity-impulsivity. This often interferes with functioning or development.
In a conversation with Allure, the actor said that because of her condition, everything needs to happen quickly for her. “I have ADD and don’t have interest in investing too much time. Whatever needs to happen needs to happen fast,” she said.
“On my wedding day, my makeup artist Puneet (B Saini) was like, Alia, this time you need to give me two hours. I told her, You’ve lost it. Especially on my wedding day, I’m not giving you two hours because I want to chill,” she added.
Alia married her Brahmastra co-star Ranbir Kapoor in April 2022, in front of a few family members and close friends. The star couple had been dating for over 5 years before getting married. The couple welcomed their first child, a daughter, Raha.
