Actress Tanushree Dutta recently took social media by a storm with a transformation video. Post shedding oodles of weight, the actress is back in the game, all set to step into showbiz again.
Talking about her massive transformation, Tanushree said she shed 18 kilos in 18 months and that it wasn’t a sudden process. “People think this is sudden, nothing is sudden. I have been working on losing weight since September 2019 and have lost 18 kilos in 18 months due to a lot of focus and dedication,” she said.
Talking about how she embarked on her fitness journey, Tanushree revealed that in 2019 she visited a temple in Ujjain fasted for a day. After that, she decided to work on her body. “Post the fast, I felt very good and I started fasting every Monday. My body felt lighter and so I continued with it and worked out regularly as well. When I realised my weight was dropping, I got a trainer to intensify the workouts. Later, I changed my diet, dropped carbs, sugar, gluten from my diet and stuck to soup, salad and juice diet with one cheat day a week. With weight training, intermittent fasting, yoga, swimming and dance classes and switching between all these, I lost weight. I was 80 back then and right now I am 62. What people are noticing is not just my weight loss but also a shift in my energy and vibe,” the actress said.
Though she has transformed into a fitter version of herself, Tanushree mentioned that her weight has never been an issue. She also stated that she got compliments for her voluptuous figure back then. “I was okay with my weight, as people complimented me as I dress well and look good. So, the impetus for someone like me to lose weight is little. Sure, in India, the media scrutiny led to social media trolling but that was as they compared me to what I looked like 10 years. They comment on weight because they want to be mean. All these years, I did celebrity appearances and ads in the US and India. Why would those people work with me if I looked so bad, though I was overweight yet I looked good. I was fine with whatever shape I had. People pick on you with what pinches you but my weight never bothered me. I was voluptuous and got compliments for it,” she stated.
All set to make a comeback in the showbiz, the actress reveals that she has almost signed a film which has now been pushed due to the pandemic. “I am in talks with three other makers and two might start shoot soon but will wait for producers to announce. Once people knew that I was back for good, they started approaching me as they know it is viable to have me start in a project. Makers want a crowd-puller and I am crowd-puller,” she concluded.
