Anupamaa‘s Muskan Bamne continued and revealed her emotions on being called ‘fat’ and said, “Actually losing weight is a lengthy process and we can’t just do it all of a sudden. I had to chalk out a whole plan about what should be eaten, what should be given and at what hour of the day. It took me nearly 4-5 years and I was still heavy. I knew that if I did not work on my body then I won’t get work in the industry in future. Gradually, I matured, I’ve understood what all is to be done and what helps. So, yes, rejections would really hurt me and I am still trying.”
You go, girl!
