Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone, who is blessed with a good figure, says she does not believe in being size zero as the Indian body type is not meant for it.
'Correct me if I am wrong, but I personally feel that the Indian body type is not cut out to be size zero. I am not size zero and I don't believe in that either,' Deepika told IANS.
'I believe that it's nice to be little full and have a nice shape,' she added.
The Bollywood actress was the show stopper for designer duo Shantanu & Nikhil's show at the Lakme Fashion Week here on Sunday.
According to Deepika, an actress gets a role for her performance and not the body type.
'In the (film) industry, body size doesn't matter. What matters is how much an actor contributes through his performance and not his body size,' explained Deepika.
'It is important that every person should wear clothes that go with their body - the cut, the fabric make a lot of difference,' she added.

i agree with her
Bebo says she is size zero but I don't think Bebo looks good
Deepika is so pretty and has a perfect body, she doesn't need to be size zero
kk she doesnt hve a gud body....shes akward......she cant act or talk in front of a camera.....
i think shes contradicting herself.... she's beautiful n have a great body but her acting leaves lot to be desired still she gets to do lot of films...
agree with u
totally agree with her! and i dont know what problem does the other people have with this...i mean whatever she said is true....people are just jealous of her cz she got a great body....
Um...what is she, a size 2?? And she's looking down at size 0?
As for weight not having a role in the film industry, I can't think of a plus size actress who has had a leading role in the past ten years in a hindi film.
so true
agree with her too
I agree with her too. Why do people want to starve themselves so that they can be so skinny? Well I am glad that she is not one of those people that believe in starving themselves to become like the rest of the people. :) This is my opinion only so please don't be offended.
just b cuz you dont believe it doesn't mean no one else does!!!!
u r gr8
i totally agree with her
