We are annoying at times, over-annoying at times, without any reason. We fall out of love, we’re afraid to say. Life comes with its own issues, but if we keep running away from them, thinking that it’s abnormal just because of certain stereotypes set by the fasaad-ki-jadh (root of the problem) society, then we’re doing it all wrong. Is our mind not a part of our body? Why can’t it be normal?Īcceptance of a problem is the first way of dealing with it. But if our mind has a problem, we’re termed as mad. Jehangir Khan (Shah Rukh Khan) firmly puts it - If our body has a problem, it’s okay. It is not something that can be romanticized about, but can only be understood when you listen to the person suffering from it, without adding labels or going all judgmental.ĭear Zindagi brings about that very important change - it talks, effortlessly, about problems that we face, but decide not to talk about.Īs Jug aka Dr. Your mental health shapes you up, in every which way. That brings about the topic of mental health, of how important, essential and normal it is. What hasn’t been discussed properly is the challenges that one may face through several such experiences that we tend to keep within us, that we hide away from, at times from our own selves. Within all of us, somewhere at the back of our mind. No, not the sadness that comes after you miss a train or after paying your monthly rent, but the one that is deep-rooted, within you. While love and laughter has been discussed about, at lengths, in the world of Hindi cinema, what hasn’t been discussed properly just as yet is sadness. Almost every other emotion is intertwined to these three essential feelings.

I call it a package deal of love, laughter and sadness. Hum ne bhi tere har ek gham ko gale se lagaya hai, hai na?
