Sana Saeed, Remembered as Anjali From Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Speaks Publicly About Bulimia
The actress has chosen to share her experience with the eating disorder openly, adding her voice to a conversation Indian cinema rarely has in public.
Sana Saeed, who played the young Anjali in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and has continued acting since, has spoken publicly about her experience with bulimia. She has not gone into clinical detail, framing the disclosure instead as something she wanted to name honestly rather than keep private.
Public conversations like this remain genuinely rare in Indian film circles, where mental health and body image have historically stayed almost entirely off the record even as they shape the industry's working conditions in obvious ways.
If you or someone you know is affected by disordered eating, the National Alliance for Eating Disorders helpline is a place to start.
