As far as the Bollywood industry is concerned, with the exception of a few movies, directors have demonstrated sensitivity when it comes to the representation of mental illness in movies throughout the past years. So Here are a few movies that demonstrated the sensitivity of mental health problems impeccably.

1. 15 Park Avenue:

by Aparna Sen is a work of art. It centers on Meethi, a Schizophrenic played by Konkona Sen Sharma. The film illustrates the impact of schizophrenia on the sufferer, her family, and her relationships in a wonderful way that is so realistic and compelling.

2. Taare Zameen Par:

directed by Aamir Khan sparked a discussion about a learning impairment that wasn't often discussed in mainstream movies but was actually more widespread than most of us realised.

3. Dear Zindagi:

The character of Kaira portrayed by Alia Bhatt in Dear Zindagi was one of the most relatable ones ever seen on the big screen. The film focused on a variety of delicate subjects, from normalising therapy to discussing mental health difficulties with one's family. It effectively conveyed that while one's problems are real and understandable, they may still be resolved.

4. Heroine:

Kareena Kapoor, who played the key role in the film "Heroine," suffered from bipolar disorder. Although the movie focuses more on how her sickness affects her work than how it causes her illness, it nonetheless managed to shed awareness on the issue and its treatment.

5. Barfi:

"Barfi!" addresses the complex bond between an autistic person (Priyanka Chopra), a deaf and mute person (Ranbir Kapoor), and a healthy person (Ileana D'Cruz). It was a refreshing movie that enters the world of the crippled without eliciting feelings of sympathy.
