Vidya Balan Discusses Weight, Insecurity, and Bollywood Standards

Vidya Balan is a famous Indian actress who started acting when she was 26.

She talked about how people told her she wasn’t young enough for some roles, which made her feel insecure.

Because of that, she gained weight, which she says can be a way to protect herself.

She worked with a healer who helped her understand that weight can be a form of protection.

Now she talks openly about body image and how the film industry has strict beauty rules.
