Alia Bhatt recently revealed that she has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In an interview, the actress discussed how she used to zone out from things since childhood, noting that nothing keeps her interest for very long. She also shared the two activities that bring her peace while managing this disorder.

In a conversation with Lallantop, the Jigra star explained, “I have been zoning out from things since childhood. I would zone out while in the classroom or in the middle of a conversation. Just recently, I took up a psychological test and after that I realised I have ADHD; my spectrum is quite high.”

The revelation surprised Alia Bhatt, but her friends had a different reaction. She said, “When I revealed this to my friends, they said they knew this for a long time now; it is not some big revelation because of my personality, and I was like, ‘But, I didn’t know.’”

Alia Bhatt, who often loses interest in various activities, finds solace when facing the camera. She remarked, “Then I realised why I am at so much peace when I am in front of the camera. I stay present at that moment. I don’t know if it’s the character or what, but I am more present at that moment. And of course, after Raha, whenever I am with her, I am most present at that moment. I am at peace at these moments, and also mentally present.”

Festive offer

Previously, the actress discussed her ADHD with Allure, sharing, “It needs to be something that you can do very quickly. I have ADHD and don’t have interest in investing too much time. Whatever needs to happen needs to happen fast. 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.’”

Alia Bhatt recently featured in Vasan Bala’s Jigra, which is currently running in theatres.
