Actress Avika Gor opened up about some of the body image issues she faced in her early years.

Avika Gor became a household name in India at a very young age after playing the role of Anandi in the hugely popular TV show Balika Badhu. Being exposed to the world of entertainment at such a young age meant that she continued to be in the limelight. But contrary to what people might think, growing up for the actress while being in the media and public focus was not a pleasant experience. In an exclusive interview with Pinkvilla, Avika has said that she faced body image issues in her teens and how much better she feels now with her physical and mental transformation.

Talking about her weight gain, she said, “I didn’t care because I despised myself. I didn’t care about how I appeared. I was just focusing on my acting. I just refused to look in the mirror. As a result, I used to feel awful. I remember trying on a costume for a shoot the next day and was freaked out. I didn’t even want or feel it Used to think I needed to look my best.”

Avika was relieved that her audience paid more attention to her craft than her looks. She said that her audience assured her that she is doing a great job with her performance and hence she doesn’t need to focus on anything else.

He also talked about receiving constructive criticism from his loyal fans. She shared how many of her fans messaged her privately with polite suggestions to improve instead of resorting to trolling by posting rude comments on her post.

Apart from being seen in Avika Balika Badhu, Sasural has also appeared in Simar Ka. She won the SIIMA Award for Best Female Debut (Telugu) for her role in Uyyala Jampala. Her other Telugu films include Ekkadiki Pothavu Chinnavada, Raju Gari Gadhi 3 and Net.
