Ekta Kapoor told MK Talks that emerging Bollywood actors feel depressed due to reduced social gatherings and heightened fitness discipline.
She linked the mental‑health strain to a cultural shift away from parties, alcohol, and communal celebrations in the industry.
The interview highlighted her talent instincts and recent projects like *The Dirty Picture* and *Bhoot Bangla*.
Analysts view the comment as a negative signal for production houses and advertisers concerned about workforce wellbeing.
