Bollywood actress Vidya Balan has always had her share of struggles when it came to her weight, and the actress has always been open about it.
The actress has now taken all her fans by surprise with the drastic weight loss. Vidya, who had stepped out for the screening of Kartik Aaryan's 'Chandu Champion', looked really slim in a black dress.
Vidya was seen at the screening with her nephew, and she couldn't stop hugging him. She also introduced him to the photographers.
Vidya has also been subject to body shaming, and in one of her earlier interviews, she told Indian Express that 'producers would ask her to lose weight before starting any new film'.
“Before every film, I would get asked by the producers and directors if I could shed some weight. And I have been going through some health challenges for a long, long time. So it was next to impossible," she once said.
"I find this absolutely ridiculous. Because the part was written with me in mind. So why this insistence? What is this obsession with only thin being desirable and acceptable?”
“Not like I wasn’t trying to shed weight. Growing up, I wanted to be thin. I began to love and accept myself. It has been a very important journey,” she added.
Vidya Balan will be seen along with Kartik Aaryan in 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3'.
Kartik Aaryan's Chandu Champion is likely to get a good opening of Rs 8 crore plus on the opening day.
