In the past, actor Ileana D’cruz opened up about suffering from body dysmorphia – a psychological condition wherein a person obsesses over any sign of an apparent ‘flaw’ in the way their body looks. According to The Indian Express, Ileana in an interview had said, “That’s the problem with body dysmorphia. No matter what size you are, no matter what number you are on the scale, you will always find fault with yourself. And the problem is you end up asking people to validate your fears.”

She wrote, “So easy to get sucked into apps that get you to alter your body so effortlessly to make you look ‘slimmer’, ‘more toned’, etc etc etc… Proud of the fact that I’ve deleted all those apps and chosen this instead. This is me and I’m embracing every inch, every curve, all of me.”
