To make mental health care affordable and accessible to everyone while being absolutely anonymous, Veda has created the Lets Get Happi App, especially for those between 16 and 35 years of age in India's metro cities. The brands are unique because it offers both, in-person and online therapy that caters to different needs and budgets, setting it apart from anyone in the field.

The revolutionary and innovative mental health App, Lets Get Happi is the World's first App to offer access to therapy from a Psychologist 24 hours a day along with a lot of other features such as meditations (some are even based on House and Electronic Dance Music), journaling, assessments tests, all in one App. And, it is also the World's only Mental Health App that offers Anonymity at an affordable rate making it unique and first-of-its-kind.

Commenting on partnering with Veda's Mr Manun Thakur to launch the Letsgethappi App, Mr Suniel Shetty says, "It is a significant step in supporting people with mental health tools and online therapy so they can thrive in all aspects of their lives. There is a huge gap in the existing landscape of mental health support and Letsgethappi has a unique blend of inclusivity and provides a safe haven for users to seek anonymous support without the fear of any stigma or judgment. The App is our single-minded commitment to address the blind spot existing in the understanding and acceptance of the social aspects of mental health in India.

"It's technology uses a combination of digital tools and 24/7 human support that aims to give users independence. Just like one's physical health, support for our mental health is equally important. Letsgethappi emphasizes on promoting a healthy approach to well-being and adheres to industry best practices," ends Mr Shetty.

Passionate about making a positive difference to the lives of people suffering from mental health problems – especially those who cannot access services due to a lack of resources or privacy, Founder and C.E.O. Of Veda,  Mr Manun Thakur, says, "We are working hard to make mental health care more accessible in India. We have offline centers for in-patient treatment and an online platform so that we can offer end-to-end care. I truly hope that we become the first super successful company that is built on kindness and empathy."

"I personally bootstrapped the company from scratch and am the largest investor in Veda. My own journey battling mental health issues motivated me to find a more credible and updated solution and hence, I created Veda. There will be an additional investment of Rs 55 crores in the next 3 years, over the current investment, to scale up and offer more solutions," adds Mr Thakur.
