Vidya Balan has a new role - that of brand ambassador for the sleep awareness month of March. The awareness month aims to sensitise people about sleep disorders, the symptoms of which are often ignored but are nevertheless a serious health condition.
One such camp for increasing sleep awareness was held at the Ram Manohar Lohia (RML) Hospital here Saturday.
According to experts, one in every three Indians suffer from insomnia or some other form of sleep disorder.
J.C. Suri, president of Indian Sleep Disorders Association, said: "The importance of sleep can be seen from the fact that people spend about one-third of their lifespan sleeping.

"It is important to create awareness about sleep disorders so that people recognise not only the symptoms but also understand that it is a treatable condition," he added in a statement.
