Film stars are scared out of their minds on two occasions. One is when the movie is about to release and the other is when they are at the airport. Yes, this is true no matter how many stars deny it.

Vidya spoke about this in an interview recently. She said, 'In the beginning, I was very careful about the airport look. If there was no shoot or event, I would not be in makeup. So, in such a case, one would pray to God that photographers should not be found at the airport.

She further said, I used to hide in the car so that the photographers could not see me. I was in constant terror of them. But now I don't care. I am as I am. Depending on age and experience, you probably develop this feeling.

My weight gain had become a national issue. That time was difficult for me. I was starting to hate myself. My weight gain and the criticism it caused had an adverse effect on my mind. She had said that my mental health was lost.

I was afraid to even look in the mirror. I was ashamed of my body. But gradually I came out of it. Of course, coming out of this was not so easy. But I did it. Now people say anything to me, make jokes about my weight gain, troll me now I don't care.

I didn't have any film background. I was my master. I have always been a fat girl before. I have had hormonal issues since the beginning. I used to get angry. But now she had also said that I have accepted everything.

I used to get frustrated with the constant hype of looking good in the film industry. I was going into depression. However, over time I accepted this. The body that God has given me is the sign of my life. Now I love my body. Because this body is mine.
