October 10 is World Mental Health Day and Kangana Ranaut urged her followers to watch her Judgementall Hai Kya movie on this day to spread awareness. In her tweet asking people to see the film, the actress also appeared to criticize Deepika Padukone, saying that the film “was dragged into court by those who run the ki dukan depression.”
Judgementall Hai Kya was initially titled Mental Hai Kya, which was deemed insensitive, forcing the creators to change it. Kangana tweeted: “The film we made to raise awareness about mental health was taken to court by those who run the depression ki dukan, after the media ban, the name of the film was changed just before the release, which caused Marketing complications, but it’s a good movie, right? Watch it today #WorldMentalHealthDay. “

Judgementall Hai Kya follows the story of a voice-over artist, Bobby (Kangana), whose life revolves between reality and illusions. Rajkummar Rao played his tenant Keshav, who arouses suspicions in Bobby’s mind after his wife dies.
Last year, when Deepika was asked about the controversy over Judgementall Hai Kya, she said: “When we have movies like Mental Hai Kya, and we have posters in a particular way, we have to be more sensitive. Because we are working to destigmatize the mental illness and, on the other hand, they are stereotyping it. “
