Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone has been appointed as India's first-ever Mental Health Ambassador by the Union Ministry of Health & Family Welfare. The announcement was made on World Mental Health Day, with Padukone expressing her honor and commitment to supporting India's mental well-being initiatives under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. She aims to strengthen the nation's mental health framework, raise awareness, and reduce stigma.

However, the appointment has sparked controversy online. Critics argue that a Bollywood celebrity may not be the most suitable choice for such a significant role. One user commented, "Plzz do not make a mockery of mental health issues with such ridiculous moves." Others suggested that a renowned scientist or doctor would have been a better choice for this position. Some questioned why Bollywood is often chosen for social causes instead of professionals from other sectors.
