In an interview given to Bollywood Bubble, Prateik Babbar said, 'People think that I started taking drugs after getting fame and money by coming into the film industry. But it is not true. My drug addiction started at the age of 13. I was brought up differently and my family situation was a bit complicated, due to which I started taking drugs. It was not because of the fame and money of the film industry, I had already started using drugs.

Prateek said, 'Drugs are associated with pain. Unless that pain is healed, it affects your relationship and life as well. However, there comes a time when you have to work hard to make things right. I have been doing just this for many years.

Talking about his fiancee and actress Priyanka Banerjee, Prateek said, 'Priyanka has supported me a lot in my difficult times. We are helping each other. However, there is no need to correct Priyanka. He is absolutely perfect. This is life, here you just have to keep moving forward.
