Hrithik sends out a strong message, on World Suicide Prevention Day

September 10 will be marked as the International World Suicide Prevention Day. In a world where mental health is fragile, and susceptible to all the more trauma than happiness, from social media, suicide has become just another thing. This should scare us, really. There can be many reasons for a person to contemplate and eventually commit suicide, one may never know, because we seldom listen, in the fast world of today.

However, Hrithik Roshan has tweeted something on the occasion, and we all should watch and implement the same. It is a video for the campaign #EarForYou, which urges one to observe for signs of depression and mental health, and listen, for all you need to do is, lend an ear, and prevent a loss of life.

Hrithik took to his Twitter account to share the same, and said, “On World Suicide Prevention Day, make a pledge to LISTEN, and save a life.” [sic]

Take a look at the video here.

This is a wonderful initiative by the actor. Our stars have so many followers, and surely their spreading awareness about mental health will bring about a change.

Apart from Hrithik, filmmaker Karan Johar too took to his Twitter handle and shared the same.

Every life is precious. It’s time that we lend a ear, and prevent a potential suicide. Hats off to Hrithik and Karan for sharing such an important message.
