I lost weight for myself, was tired of taunts: Dighi

Prarthana Fardin Dighi had to face a lot of criticism for her weight. She was constantly bullied on social media, where many claimed she wasn't fit enough to be an actress. 

Dighi took hold of the criticism and took on the challenge to lose weight within eight months. She posted the before and after picture on her social media where she detailed her weight loss journey. 

"I have been through a lot in my whole life, but this journey is my most favourite one.The picture on the left was taken about 8 months ago standing in front of the audience on-stage performing, and the right side one just after the 8 months doing exactly the same work without having 8-9 kg weighing," read her post. 

Within eight months, the actor got back her self-confidence by undergoing rigorous training and exercise, which made her appear more confident than ever before. 

"These eight months taught me so many things including ups and downs, sleepless nights, heartbreak, betrayal, taunts,body shaming, etc. And now look at me the same person having all the love from all the way after proving herself more stronger, added the actress. 

The actress believes that loving oneself is the best way to fight back haters and that if you want something badly, then nobody can stop you from achieving it. 

"Never felt down for myself and yes I love myself in every shape,way, colour even no one does. And proud of myself in every way possible. I would like to thank each and everyone who motivated me from the very beginning and yes obviously M R Blade , Blade 6% fitness studio and Mehedi Hasan for making me believe I can do everything," stated the actress. 

In the end, the actress also addressed the fact that she did all of this only for herself, and not for anyone else. 

"What I have done and will do all the things are for myself, and no one else in this world. I do what I love and never regret doing the things that I love," concluded the actress.
