Ileana D’Cruz embraces her curves in an unfiltered bikini pic after deleting photo editing apps – Times of India

Flaunting her curves in a red bikini, Ileana wrote, “So easy to get sucked into apps that get you to alter your body so effortlessly to make you look ‘slimmer’, ‘more toned’, etc etc etc… Proud of the fact that I’ve deleted all those apps and chosen this instead. This is me and I’m embracing every inch, every curve, all of me #youarebeautiful”.

Ileana is quite vocal about body positivity ever since she opened up about her battle with Body Dysmorphic Disorder. The last time she had offered a glimpse of her no filter pictures on the internet, she had shared, “I’ve always worried about how I looked. I’ve worried my hips are too wide, my thighs too wobbly, my waist not narrow enough, my tummy not flat enough, my boobs not big enough, my butt too big, my arms too jiggly, nose not straight enough, lips not full enough….. I’ve worried that I’m not tall enough, not pretty enough, not funny enough, not smart enough, not ‘perfect’ enough.”

“Not realising I was never meant to be perfect. I was meant to be beautifully flawed. Different. Quirky. Unique. Every scar, every bump, every ‘flaw’ just made me, me. My own kind of beautiful.” The actor concluded, “That’s why I’ve stopped. Stopped trying to conform to the world’s ideals of what’s meant to be beautiful. I’ve stopped trying so hard to fit in. Why should I?? When I was born to stand out” she added further.

On the work front, Ileana last appeared in Abhishek Bachchan’s ‘The Big Bull.’
