Bollywood celebrities with Obsessive Compulsive Disorders (OCDs)

Gone are the days when film personalities were presumed to be larger than life like their cinema; unreachable and not relatable. Apart from the time that they are facing the camera, Bollywood actors are as normal and common as everybody else. And celebs from the B-Town have time and again insisted on the same. While actors have come out open about various mental issues they have faced in their life, there are also many who suffer from various anxiety issues which is a very common phenomenon. We take a look at some Bollywood celebrities who go through some or the other sort of OCDs...

The next time you spot Ajay Devgn eating his dal and roti with fork and spoon, don’t be shocked! The actor is extremely conscious of his hand sanitation, especially his fingers. Ajay has a real disgust for smelly fingers. And that is the reason he refrains from eating with his hands.

Ali Fazal

Everyone loves their coffee hot and sizzling and so does actor Ali Fazal. However, Ali takes it a little further. So much so that it had become his obsession.

12/15

Ranveer Singh
