EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH URVASHI RAUTELA
1. From Miss Universe India stage to a large screen, how has the journey been? My journey from Miss Universe India stage to a large screen has been a long and winding one. My first started competing in beauty pageants when I was just 16 years old, and I quickly rose through the ranks. In 2012, I won the title of Miss Universe India and went on to represent India at the Miss Universe pageant in Las Vegas. Although I did not win the crown, But came up strong showing third place. 2. One food item you should never, ever eat? I feel one must never eat anything made out of refined flour (Maida). It has no nutritional value at all and causes a lot of problems later on in life. 3. Shave down there or trim it? I feel trimming is better any day. Saves time and effort. 4.What's your favorite passtime during free times on the sets Playing games on my iPad. 5.Describe your daily routine in short. My day starts with Gymming, then I spend my day by Shooting for my show and then I watch a movie to unwind. 6.Are you a morning person or a night person? I am a night person. 7.One thing you will never leave your home without? There are many things like his phone, wallet and also wearing his perfume. 8.What is your cheat meal like? My cheat meal is pizza. He added he can eat two medium-sized pizzas by himself in one go. 9.Describe yourself in 3 words? The actor said that he is impatient, a jolly kind of person and an explorer. The lines are constantly thinning, when it comes to what is beautiful and what is not. Body positivity is slowly catching up, and the 'accepted standards' of beauty and fitness are getting questioned. What are your views about it? I completely support it, as there can't be any set parameters to judge anyone physically, especially since we live in a society. I feel getting comfortable with our own body by accepting the flaws, makes us open to various other forms of body types around us, which is essential for our own mental well-being.
