Fatima Sana Shaikh, best known for her role in Dangal, recently revealed that she struggled with Bulimia for a year. In a candid conversation on a podcast with Rhea Chakraborty, she described her “love-hate relationship” with her body and food, admitting she was “addicted to a certain image of myself.” Shaikh explained that her disordered eating began after she had to gain weight for Dangal. She said, “I have had a very love-hate relationship with myself. And I have been addicted to a certain image of myself. That I have to look like this. And I have a very toxic relationship with food. During Dangal, I put on weight because I had to. And whenever I am goal-oriented, like I need to achieve this for the role, then I am going to do everything. But there I was, training for 3 hours. Then I was working out for 1.5 hours.”
