For any young women reading this; Happiness is not a dress size or a number on a scale – it’s something that comes from within. But for women in movies who are under constant scrutiny, it is a must for them to look, to the point of looking anorexic. Apparently I have heard of an actress who had followed a three-month starvation diet of green leaves and diet Coke after being told she could be an international sensation if she was thinner. Talking of ultra professional stars, how can we ever ignore Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan. They both were shooting for Mani’s Guru and the duo had to put on kilos of weight as they are shown progressing over a span of time in the film. Our southern actresses can’t resist production food, but the new breed of starlets are into power yoga and healthy dieting to cope with the intense competition. One actress who is acting with a top star has put on weight and looks bad in her modern costumes. Her aides disclose she is suffering from an allergy and the medication has helped her add flab. And also they say that the moment she stops medication she will be back to normal. Wonder why she didn’t wait to sign a film till the medication got over?
