Mumbai, March 4 : 'Agar Tum Na Hote' actress Simaran Kaur spoke about body shaming and said that there are certain standards set by people in society. Many aretherefore, are very conscious about how they look, and that affects their confidence.

“I believe all try to look their best to impress people around them and it can have some dire consequences. I have heard about people crash dieting to lose weight so that they can reach their perceived beauty goals. However, I believe in being healthy and looks come after health. We should not let our appearance or weight affect our mental or physical health,” she added.

However, the actor feels that the attitude and approach of people towards looks or body weight is changing. “I guess it has made people more sensitive and general behaviour has really improved. We have become nicer while conducting ourselves in public. We have become more empathetic, which is a great step forward,” she said.
