In his just-released memoir, Sidhartha Mallya, who is now an actor and mental health advocate, discusses his struggle with depression and OCD. Once a regular face on Mumbai’s party circuit, Sidhartha now prefers the quiet life. He wakes up before dawn, meditates, heads out for a walk, often with his dog, and then hits the gym, before going for acting class. He hasn’t sipped alcohol in three years—the irony that he belongs to a family that has been one of the biggest producers of alcohol in the world. The lifestyle change, however, was spurred by his mental health journey. Sidhartha suffered from depression in 2016 and was later diagnosed with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), a condition he realised he had been living with all along.
