Raveena Tandon
The 'feminist' female journalists today, Raveena Tandon points out, were among those who didn't shy away from fat-shaming her two decades ago when she was in her prime. "Almost every magazine and tabloid would body shame female actors. I was called thunder thighs. Inevitably, we were almost always starving ourselves. We had no photo-shop then, so it was a tough job to stay slim because that is what was depicted," says Tandon.

Moving around sets with dabbas of popcorn and makhanas, Tandon would intersperse them with grilled or boiled delicacies. A 'dedicated meal plan' didn't feature in her daily routine, even though gym or swimming sessions were "always a necessity".
