Barfi actor Ileana D’Cruz recently shared a photo of herself in a red, ruffled bikini on her Instagram profile. But it wasn’t just any OOTD or beach vacay picture.
With the picture, Ileana — who had earlier opened up about suffering from body dysmorphia for 15 years — shared a powerful and inspiring note on how it is “so easy to get sucked into apps that get you to alter your body so effortlessly to make you look ‘slimmer’, ‘more toned’, etc etc etc… Proud of the fact that I’ve deleted all those apps and chosen this instead”. She concluded by stating, “This is me and I’m embracing every inch, every curve, all of me.”
