New Delhi: Actor Sidhartha Mallya has had a unique life to say the least. Born into one of Indias most prominent business families, he is Vijay Mallya's son, he has had -- from an outside perspective -- what many would consider a blessed life. Appearances can often be deceiving though, and at times what was going on inside was a very different story.
In his memoir 'If I Am Being Honest', published by Westland Publications, he opens up about struggling with depression, living with OCD, the effects of his parents divorce, why he quit drinking and also what helped him face and overcome his challenges.
In 2016, he went through depression. Something that came as a bit of a surprise to him, given that he seemingly had the world at his feet -- he was young, had just graduated from a prestigious drama school and had upcoming film projects. However, despite all the wonderful opportunities that awaited him, Sidhartha felt unhappy and constantly low. That was when he realised that something was not right and sought professional help.
