Mumbai (Maharashtra), 16th Jan 2023: Popular Indian rapper and music producer, Honey Singh, recently opened up his battle with bipolar disorder, and revealed in an interview how Bollywood actors Deepika Padukone, Shah Rukh Khan, and Akshay Kumar helped him through this phase.

In the interview, Singh shared how Padukone reached out to him during a particularly difficult time and offered her support. “She called me and asked me how I was doing. I told her about my diagnosis and she listened to me patiently. She also recommended a doctor who helped me a lot in my recovery,” he said.

Khan and Kumar also offered their support and encouragement to Singh during his treatment. “Shah Rukh and Akshay both called me and told me that they are there for me whenever I need them. Their support meant a lot to me,” Singh said.
