The actress we are talking about is none other than Sameera Reddy who became famous with films like ‘Musafir’, ‘Race’, ‘Maine Dil Tujhko Diya’. Although the actress has not appeared on-screen for a long time, she has been quite active on social media. Sameera has no problem in showing her grey hair or her actual body type which is normal. In this way, she has become an inspiration to many people by breaking stereotypes.
In fact, in an interview with Hindustan Times, Sameera said, “I cannot stress enough how much pressure was put on me to get a boob job (breast surgery) at the top of my career. A lot of people kept saying, ‘Sameera, everybody is doing it, why not you?’ But I didn’t want anything like that in me.”
Sameera further says, “It is like you are hiding a flaw but it is not a flaw, life is like this. I will not judge anyone who wants to get plastic surgery and botox, but what works for me is to heal myself internally.”
There have been many instances when the internet has praised Sameera for accepting her age. The actress jokingly says that for a long time Google had got her age wrong, but she made sure to get it corrected.
The actress says, “People said that now I look happier and more comfortable in my skin. I looked sculpted at the age of 28, but at the age of 45 I feel warmth and comfort. When I was 40, my age on the Internet was 38. But I changed it immediately because I was proud of being 40. After so much fooling around in the interview, Google found the wrong age.
Sameera also revealed that when she initially joined social media, she was asked to use filters. She says, “I said I will show my skin when it’s bad, I will show my cellulite and my weight. This is who I am. I am more thankful for doing this than being a perfect figure of 36-24-36, I get to be real which I was never able to do while being an actress.”
Sameera further said, “There was always a veil between me and my audience. We only did what people wanted to hear, but when you show ‘wake up like this’ it makes people worried. No, you don’t do that. I wake up like a mad person every day, running after my kids.:
Sameera further says, “But I have the ability to look amazing even at the age of 45 and I have it. When you show your grey hair, your belly fat and your stretch marks, it makes someone feel that ‘there is someone else like me’ and it takes the pressure off them.”
Let us tell you that at present Sameera is away from the glamour of the silver screen and is enjoying her family life.
