Prachi Desai: From Baby Face to Baby Fat
While actresses in Bollywood workout religiously and diet endlessly to maintain their size zero frame, new entrant Prachi Desai could be less than bothered by reports of her weight gain. The young actress was seen visibly heavier as she performed on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 3's opening episode but Prachi puts down the extra kilos to being free from the scrutinizing camera and forgoing her diet and exercise regime while on her break.
Prachi says, "I have put on a little bit of weight and it's not for a role or anything. I finished shooting for Life Partner in December so I have been on a break and I'm not following any sort of diet right now. In between, I had a very hectic schedule so I could not exercise regularly. Anyway, the camera makes you look 5kgs heavier than you are in reality!"
The actress is unfazed by the extra kilos, saying, "I don't get stressed out about my weight. I don't believe in sitting and counting how many calories I need to consume everyday. I believe that all kinds of foods are necessary for the body. It's no use fasting the whole day to maintain your weight."
Though she is presently lax on her appearance, she plans to get back into shape soon. She says, "I eat everything but I avoid eating junk food. I don't know why people make a fuss over these issues. Right now, I am not working out but want to start exercising again. If you play a sport regularly then your body tends to keep fit. I used to skip to exercise."
Prachi, who shot to fame with her role on Kasamh Se, was skinny on the show. Her lean frame was also showed off in her debut film Rock On. The actress will soon have to get back to her original size as shooting for her next project starts shortly.
