Tom Cruise stated that at the age of seven he was diagnosed as having the language-based learning disability that can include problems in reading, spelling, writing and pronouncing words.

"I asked myself if I was normal or an idiot. I would try to concentrate but I felt anxiety, frustration, boredom. When I graduated from high school in 1980 I was functionally illiterate," he told XL Semanal, the weekly magazine supplement of daily Spanish newspaper ABC.

"Nobody gave me a solution and I wanted to know why the system had failed. Finally, as an adult I learned to read perfectly through the method of [Scientology's late founder] L. Ron Hubbard," he added.

Other world renowned celebrities who suffered from dyslexia are Richard Branson (entrepreneur ), John Chambers (Cisco CEO), Keira Knightley ( actress), Jay Leno ( talk show host and comedian ), Guy Ritchie (film director), Orlando Bloom (actor), Abhishek Bachchan (Bollywood actor ) and many more.
