Ileana D’cruz is one of the renowned faces in Bollywood as well as south industry. The actress has featured in various major hit bollywood films. The actor is celebrating her birthday today. On her birthday let us recalls the incident when she was struggling with body issues and when she also suffers from suicidal thoughts but not because of her body but due to different reason.
Ileana once speaking about her body and shape said, "I have always had issues accepting my body the way it is. I have finally come to a place maybe where I am learning to like it how it is. I am respecting it a lot more and taking care of it a lot more. And I think it is showing. So, I am happier right now." She further said, "I didn't know I was suffering from Depression and Body Dysmorphic Disorder till I got help. At one point, I even had suicidal thoughts and wanted to end things."
She further speaking about her struggle with her body type said, "There are times when I work-out like crazy, for months. I lose weight and look great. Then, I give it up for a while. I have realised that if you change your lifestyle completely, it makes a difference. Earlier, I used to spend so much time in the gym and did not focus as much on what I was eating. I have realised that 90 per cent of what you look like is your diet. So, you need to eat well. Invest in a good nutritionist if possible... I am very careful about what I am eating. Keep a check on how much sugar you consume daily."
When people started linking her body issues with suicidal issues the actress said, “Those are two separate issues, so I didn't like the fact that they clubbed them together like that 'oh you know because she had body issues.' I said, 'no,' not to say that if somebody else is going through something like that, you should downplay it.”
