Although the demand for a so-called perfect face and figure is more in Bollywood compared to the South, asked for her opinion on the matter, Nithya told the media:" I think it is important for people to appreciate different form of beauty. Every individual looks different and that is the beauty. It is so negative when people say, 'your nose is not perfect, fix it'.""We are born in a certain way. We should celebrate that. we should start it from childhood and never bodyshame anyone. I know people tend to talk to children about their skin colour. At times, kids are called 'motu' etc. Stop it right there. So much trolling happens on social media, it is ruthless! They expect unrealistic beauty from actors and it is such a negative space," said the "OK Kanmani" famed actress.From Vidya Balan, Bhumi Pednekar, Sonakshi Sinha, and Sara Ali Khan - there are several actresses who went through weight loss and body transformation and faced huge criticism for their body weight.According to Nithya, critics, especially trolls are ignorant of the whole matter and their comments are ruthless."They tend to think that a person, who is overweight, either eats much or is lazy to exercise. That is not true, obesity is a health issue, and at times hormonal. So, stop all the shaming and trolling."In "Mission Mangal", Nithya plays a scientist.

Off the camera, we would chat, eat together, and Akshay sir would play pranks on me. It was a good team and we were like teammates," she said.Since Nithya worked in "NTR: Kathanayakudu" with Vidya earlier, and she said: "Before coming on set (of 'Mission Mangal'), we (Vidya and she) had interacted, but Taapsee and I met only on the set first time.
