Actor Ileana D’Cruz has said that she has been dealing with bullying — specifically about her body — since she was a teenager. In an interview to Pinkvilla, the Pagalpanti actor revealed what she finds the most annoying about online trolling around her appearance.
She said, “I get annoyed when there’s warped pictures of me, where they will enhance certain things and make me look bigger than I actually am. If I have put on weight, it’s fine. But I have dealt with bullying since I was 13-14.”
Ileana said, “That’s a vulnerable and sensitive age because you’re just starting to talk to boys. I have been harassed by my body type so much that I think I have heard it all. I just didn’t like it because I was looking at myself from that person’s perspective. People would be like, ‘This isn’t normal’, why do you have a body like that?’ I have reached that point where I’m happy. It’s entertaining and funny.”
