Actor Babil Khan has opened about his struggle with mental health issues, months after going viral on social media for an emotional outburst.
Babil, who is the son of late actor Irrfan Khan, put out an emotional poem on social media to reveal his battle with depression.
In May, Babil made headlines after a video of him went viral in which the actor was seen crying, calling the film industry “fake”. He even named a few of his peers. Following the controversy, Babil deleted his social media accounts, but later reactivated them. He also reportedly dropped out of a project to take some time off.
Babil was spotted at the airport on Saturday after which he shared the emotional note on Instagram.

Posting pictures of himself in a red sweater, the poem in the caption to his Instagram post read, "Didn’t mean to eavesdrop, this glass house has lean walls. I wore my heart on my sleeve; now I have blood-soaked t-shirts. I needed time to heal. My demons left me with deep cuts, insomnia, and panic had me making wired confessions, I was crying out for help, I couldn’t stifle my expression. The toll was heavy on my health, my soul was tired of repression, “you were fighting with your girl while I was fighting my depression…wait..”
Reacting to Babil's post, actor Vijay Varma commented, “Babil, we got your back.” Aparshakti Khurana also dropped a heart emoji and Gulshan Devaiah wrote, “Look who’s here" to welcome the actor back to social media.
Babil was last seen in social media thriller "Logout".
