Recently, Durefishan Saleem appeared on Something Haute’s Haute Talk, a show hosted by Amna Isani. In the interview, she opened up about leading a career as an overweight actor.
Talking about it, Durefishan Saleem said,
“I wouldn’t say that surviving in this industry with my weight has been the easiest thing or even the hardest thing for me but from day one, I was very clear about one thing—I’m going to be truly myself. I knew that being fit doesn’t mean being lean. I just needed to be healthy. I have a broader body structure, that’s my build, and I’ll remain like this for the rest of my life. I can’t keep fluctuating in weight. Most women in Pakistan are like me, and people relate to me. They often say, ‘You don’t look like an actress—you look like us.’ Love happens to people of every shape, people of all shapes go through emotions.” Here is the link to the video:
