Television actress Avika Gor, best remembered as the child star who became a household name for playing the role of cute little Anandi from Balika Vadhu, has made a name for herself in the TV industry over the years. However, there was a time when the actress when would cry looking at her body. The actress had even broken down due to body-shaming.
Avika narrated her tale on her social media account. She penned down her dramatic weight loss journey and how she filled with insecurities about her body because of eating 'anything and everything' without working out at all. She added that she did not give her body the 'respect' that it deserves. She wrote, "I still remember one night last year, when I looked at myself in the mirror & I broke down. I didn't like what I saw. Big arms, legs, a well earned belly. I had let go too much. If it were due to an illness(Thyroid, PCOD, etc), it would be okay because that would be out of my control. But, it happened because I ate anything & everything, and I didn't workout at all. Our bodies deserve to be treated well, but I didn't respect it. As a result, I disliked the way I looked so much that I couldn't even completely enjoy dancing (which I love) without thinking 'how I must look right now'. I got so busy judging myself & feeling bad that I didn't leave any scope for outsiders to make me feel bad".
