Ileana D’Cruz held Ask Me Anything session and fans were excited to know about their favourite actor who is also expecting. A fan asked her if she is worried about gaining weight and the actor had a lovely reply.
When a fan asked, ‘You worried you are gonna gain weight?’ She responded, ‘Ok so this question would initially really trigger me. And I think it's because so many people comment on your weight when you're having a baby. It doesn't help when you go to your doctor checkups and they have to weigh you in every time so it's consistently on your mind. Let me just say I've loved how my body has changed these past few months.’
She added, ‘It's such a miraculous wondrous humbling journey. And yes I'm human and there are days I don't feel great. But I have an amazing support system and people that love me and remind me that I am making a literal little human inside me! So 'weight' does not matter. Don't go by what the 'ideal amount of weight gain' should be during your pregnancy. Stay as happy as you can. As healthy as you can. And listen to your body! Do what feels right to you (red heart emoji).’
A fan also asked about her weirdest cravings and the actor replied, ‘Mini carrots. Straight out of the bag (laughing emoji). Another fan asked her what is she craving for the most, ice cream or pizza. On this, she replied, ‘Honestly, just good old Indian food! Haven't had a good butter chicken and naan in a while. Miss the food in Bombay.’
A fan also popped the question of how her pregnancy journey was and she said, ‘Honestly, there's so much to say regarding this journey but if I had to sum it up in one word -humbling. May get more into detail if it's something you guys want to know more about.’
Another fan was curious to know if she has any plans for ‘Barfi 2’ and Ileana replied, ‘Wow I never have thought about that. Barfi was and I think will always be so special to me. And what makes it that much more special is that there is just one Barfi. But the opportunity to come together and create another film and story as special - I'd love that.’
