Ragini Dwivedi is being flooded with compliments by her fans who are gushing over her recent transformation to a sculpted body.
The actress however, isn’t shying away and says she deserves all the compliments considering that it took her five months of hard work to get back to shape.
Even when the actress had three films in the making --Naane Next CM, Kichchu and Gandhigiri — her focus was to get fit. “While I have been channeling my energy to find the right scripts, I was determined to get back to shape and dedicate the required months,” says Ragini. Her efforts have been appreciated and she has become the talk of the town too.
“This transition was not for anybody else. I was feeling disturbed to see myself unhealthy and I didn’t mind putting a hold on to my film career to get in shape. I realised, If you don’t feel good about yourself from within, you will never feel satisfied. Getting in shape has boosted my confidence,” Ragini asserts.
The to-be-released films will see her in the old look, but Ragini is prepared to get over it soon. “I am an actress; but I am also a human first. I will get through this phase. Of course there were some films, where I had look fat or in a specific way. But ultimately, beauty is skin deep and the audience looks for the character and how much justice I have done with the role. Entertainment is different from the 10 minute ramp walk. Performance becomes a priority with film as they run for close to two hours,” she admits.
Meanwhile, the actress reveals that she will soon have three big announcements in a month’s time for both Kannada and other language projects.
“Losing all the weight, I had gained is helping me to focus on better things,” she signs off.
