Here is a list of Indian television actors who went a hiatus to focus on their health:

1. Kapil Sharma

Kapil Sharma had taken a break for almost a year from television when he was battling depression and alcoholism. In an interview during the promotions of his Bollywood film, Firangi, Kapil Sharma opened about his struggle with mental health issues. He said that he would cancel shoots due to the panic attacks that he had and in the process, drench himself in alcohol.

He even said that he would be suicidal for most of the time. He even opened up about the pressures of social media which got him a lot of negative publicity. Kapil Sharma even revealed how he cancelled shoots with big names like Shah Rukh Khan and Anil Kapoor only because he could not perform due to anxiety.
