It’s a new me,” says Vahbiz Dorabjee excitedly. The actress, who has lost 10 kgs in the past few months, is looking forward to returning to television. “It was a conscious decision to lose weight because I felt that it was impacting my career. I was unhappy with the kind of work that I was being offered. I have always supported body positivity, but in recent times I was being offered roles where I had to play a mother to actors my age. So I decided to work on myself and I’m happy because I feel fitter than ever before,” she says.
Talking about her health issues, the Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani and Savitri actress shares, “Around 10 years ago, I was diagnosed with hyperthyroid, which caused weight gain. A few years later, I was diagnosed with diabetes, which led to health issues. So, it hasn’t been easy for me, but with a proper diet and a lot of walking, yoga and meditation, I have managed to get here.”
The actress, who was last seen in the TV show Bahu Humari Rajni_Kant and the web show Hiccups and Hookups, is in a happy space now. “Along with acting, I run an event management company, so the uncertainty in showbiz doesn’t stress me out. I’m looking forward to doing good work across various mediums,”she concludes.
