Actor Ileana D’Cruz, who spoke about the body-shaming issue for the first time in 2017, once again shared her personal experience of experiencing the same during the shooting of her first film in 2006.

She recalled the time when the director of her first film ‘Devadasu’ told her to wear heavy ceramic shells around her waist for a scene.

“It was like a full-on love story, very passionate and intense. And there’s a song in that film in which ceramic shells, and they were pretty heavy, they were dropped on my waist. And I didn’t understand it honestly because I was just 18-years-old. I was so young, so naive, ” she said during an interview with Bollywood Bubble.

The actor also said that the director tried to justify that the scene she was shooting for was a sensual one and she decided to go with the flow despite not understanding his thoughts clearly.

In the past, the actor said she experienced body shaming since she was 12 and also spoke about facing body dysmorphia.
