Actress Mahima Makwana stresses the significance of a structured routine, particularly in the entertainment industry, for maintaining good mental health. Despite the industry’s unpredictable nature, she highlights the necessity of finding a balance to ensure a positive mindset. In an exclusive interview, Mahima discusses the crucial role of mental health and the need for a sense of structure in an actor’s life.
She emphasizes the importance of maintaining a specific structure to safeguard mental well-being, given the demanding nature of the profession. While discussions on healthier work practices are increasing, achieving a work-life balance depends on an actor’s career stage and their ability to communicate needs effectively. Mahima acknowledges the ongoing shift towards a more structured approach but notes the importance of finding common ground with filmmakers.
Addressing the industry’s debate on fixed working hours, Mahima’s comments align with the broader conversation, especially following Deepika Padukone’s call for an 8-hour workday due to motherhood responsibilities. On the professional front, Mahima is set to appear in ‘Musafir Cafe,’ alongside Vikrant Massey and Vedika Pinto, premiering on July 24. The show delves into themes of love, relationships, heartbreak, and self-discovery.
