Tanushree Dutta said that finding more work in Bollywood and looking good on camera were a few motivating factors.
Actor Tanushree Dutta, in a recent interview, opened up about her weight loss journey as she shed 15 kgs over the last year. The actor said she managed to achieve her goal through a combination of exercise, yoga, a strict diet, and intermittent fasting.
Tanushree resides in the US and has been sharing her pictures and videos, flaunting her lean figure.
Tanushree told Times Now, "Yeah, that was a particular reason. I was healthy and fit in terms of my body and shape, I was okay. I was not obese. For screen, I thought if I dropped a few pounds, I would look even better. So I started working on that."
She also said she would be hurt when people would give her "underhanded compliments".
She added, "I think, in the last couple of years, when I was maintaining a bigger body frame, I think a lot of people took that as an excuse to body-shame me. Sometimes people can be really sneaky, you rarely come across people who outright call you fat. They said in sneaky ways and that hurts you nevertheless. They will say something that is completely unnecessary. Don’t I know it? People would be like ‘oh you have put on a bit of weight, you are bigger than before.’ Basically underhanded comments. I got a lot of underhanded comments and underhanded compliments, which you can tell the intention of the person the way they are talking to you. You can tell that they don’t have their best interests in me. They say it to put you down and make you feel bad. I did go through that emotional roller coaster."
