You have to understand that Sonam didn't always have this body and she's still working hard (sport and diet) to maintain what she achieved. Also, at one point she was there alongside Deepika, Priyanka, Anushka and Kareena (size zero phase) which had great bodies while she felt she was lacking. She also deemed as unsexy by Ranbir at that time and that must be why it hurt her when he said that.

So I think she does come from a place where she once was this insecure young girl

Also, this is an excerpt of an article she wrote for Buzzfeed post-Neerja which was her most successful movie to date.

That's what Sonam said back then when asked and it was about wearing a bikini on screen :

The actress frankly admits that she was not a candidate for bikini. Sonam says I refuse to wear a bikini. I have a saggy rear, I have cellulite, I said in an interview recently that assets are not very nice so... I recently fit into a size 2 dress, which is great because I was size 16 once.

She ended up doing a bikini scene in Bewakoofiyaan when she became more confortable with her body.



Here, she was already talking about body issues back in 2008 : http://ladymirth.livejournal.com/77109.html

Then why at all give them such high expectations by choosing to look like those flawless women on billboards? I'm sorry but the problem pretty much lies with stars themselves when they talk about how beauty lies within and it's not superficial. If there are 20 people working around you,trying to make you this flawless beauty,aren't you yourself being a part of that myth of flawlessness?

Make more appearances without looking flawless and a different person altogether and rather looking like the real you and star in more films that give emphasis to the character's traits than beauty and I'm pretty sure even normal teenagers will start looking upto actors for their real self and not for their mythical beauty and flawlessness.

Nice pep talk but won't work unless you set an example yourself.

(And this applies to both male and female celebrities in the industry. About time, they start actually doing what they preach.)

I get your point but you didn't direct it to the right person because Sonam is actually one of the few confident enough to step out makeup free both on and off screen.

She's been constantly saying this.

Nothing wrong in enhancing your features and if you think that, you missed her point : she isn't saying don't take care of yourself but rather don't feel bad if you don't look like a celebrity because a lot is going on to make them look like that : it's part of their job to look glamorous just like it's part of the job of a cabin crew to look tidy and wear red lipstick for female.

From a superficial person like Sonam to hear this words are quiet refreshing.

"So, for every teen girl leaning into her bedroom mirror, wondering why she doesn't look like a celebrity: Please know that nobody wakes up like this. Not me. Not any other actress. (Not even Beyonc. I swear.)

Here's the real deal: Before each public appearance, I spend 90 minutes in a makeup chair. Three to six people work on my hair and makeup, while a professional touches up my nails. My eyebrows are tweezed and threaded every week. There's concealer on parts of my body that I could never have predicted would need concealing.

I'm up at. Don't let her hold herself to a standard that's too high, even for the women on the billboards.


The message is good. But who didn't know it already? Not in today's world. Where tv magazines internet blasts makeup, makeovers and a million beauty products.

And anyway that face up there might not have makeup, make up but that face structure, the eyelids, the full lips, themselves are not her own. Her face bone structure was much more broader. Just pull out any page relating to her movie Players, and any other where she doesn't have a kilo of makeup and counturing.

She had her own face maybe up to before that film before the one with Ayesha khurrana but in that film onwards, she has come with her new face and people started saying she is beautiful..

The work is subtle but it has enhanced her face immensely. From broad her face has become bony and long. Features immensely sharper. There are airport pictures of her REALLY her natural self, so putting this picture isn't being honest.
