Sunny Deol reveals he has THIS disorder, had trouble reading scripts and understanding dialogues, he was suffering from…

In the glitzy and glamorous lives of Bollywood, it’s the dazzling and picture-perfect lives of the celebrities that come to the forefront; however, the struggles and challenges they go through often remain in the shadows or are brushed under the carpet. One such tale is of Bollywood’s celebrated actor who is praised for his remarkable contribution to Indian Cinema. However, he recently opened up about a personal challenge that he battled during his childhood.

The actor that we are talking about is none other than Sunny Deol. In an interview, Sunny revealed that he has been living with dyslexia. It is a learning disorder that affects the brain’s ability to process things. As also shown in the film “Taare Zameen Par”, dyslexia is not a mental condition; however, it creates a hassle in decoding numbers, words, and reading texts. Speaking about his challenge, he revealed how he has been battling this disorder from a very young age, while he was in school. He revealed that because of Dyslexia, he had a hard time studying in school, and this struggle continued in his professional life, where he frequently had trouble reading scripts and remembering dialogues.

He even shared that he felt embarrassed on the sets when he had to read a word repeatedly. In fact, he had to ask for his dialogues in Hindi so he could understand and deliver them properly.

What is Dyslexia

Unlike the assumption, Dyslexia is not an illness, but it is a disorder in which people find it difficult to read, write, spell, or say words correctly. 7 out of 100 children are affected by this disorder, with many who remain undiagnosed. Although Dyslexia has nothing to do with intellect, it affects how the brain processes things.

Some common symptoms include – trouble recognising letters and numbers, difficulty recalling names, reading slowly, and problems with spelling or writing complex words. While many adults find it difficult to focus, have problems memorising spelling, and have difficulty understanding a foreign language.

With enough emotional support, Dyslexia can be managed. Sunny, in his interview, also emphasises not pressuring children, providing mental and emotional assistance, and making sure they don’t feel alone in their struggle.
