Vidya Balan unveiled how it started bothering her and there were days where her body would bloat up under pressure, “On the days I was under the pressure of looking my best, I would bloat up and I would be so angry and frustrated.”

It doesn’t matter what I have been through, I am alive because of this body. It’s blood and bones.”
