Balika Vadhu Star Avika Gor Shares Inspiring Story Of How She Got Fit

Actress Avika Gor, who is best known for playing young Anandi in the TV show Balika Vadhu, has been trending since Wednesday. The 23-year-old actress surprised her fans with her drastic body transformation and described her journey in a lengthy Instagram post on Wednesday. In her post, Avika Gor talked about all her insecurities and she stated that she broke down when she looked in the mirror a year ago. She wrote that she "did not respect" her body.

"I still remember one night last year, when I looked at myself in the mirror and I broke down. I didn't like what I saw. Big arms, legs, a well-earned belly. I had let go too much. If it were due to an illness (Thyroid, PCOD, etc), it would be okay because that would be out of my control. But, it happened because I ate anything and everything, and I didn't work out at all. Our bodies deserve to be treated well, but I didn't respect it," wrote Avika Gor.
