Esha Gupta was lately in the headlines for sharing topless
and hot snaps on her Instagram page. Numerous started trolling and demeaning
the actress and Esha is not astonished about the reaction as she spoke honestly
with a famous tabloid.
She told, “In our country, women are eternally blamed. They
are accused when a girl child is born, they are even accused even when they
raped. So, somewhere I knew that I will also have to face a lot of heat. After
all, it's easiest for some faceless and redundant people to pull a celebrity
down at the first opportunity. I've done shoots like this one when I was a
model. I've gone topless and naked, too. No one ever asked me about that. And
who are these people who have `issues' with my pictures? It's my body and it's
been shot aesthetically.”
The actress further added, "There's a thin line, which
if you cross, you look vulgar. No one can say my pictures are vulgar. I got
more love than hate, but it's better to be hated than to be forgotten. And
right now, I'm in my best shape. Although we knew where this could lead, we
thought, `If not now, then when?"
Talking about men's attitudes as well as being comfortable
in her own body, Esha continued, "Men tend to have a problem if a woman
goes bold. Their manhood is challenged. They are prudes; they must have even
saved these pictures on their phone. And here we are in the country of Ajanta
and Ellora, and Kamasutra, objecting to a woman's photoshoot which she has done
on her own will. So, my attitude is, `S***w them', and that's the point I
wanted to make. The pictures turned out so beautiful that I didn't want to hold
them back. The thing is that I've been comfortable and confident about my body
all along."
Did someone from the industry comment on her bold pictures?
To this, Esha disclosed, "Yes. Some of them did. Like Milan Luthria told
me, `You're killing it with these photos. I'll be there for you if need
arises.' I'm relieved and happy."
Esha will next be seen in Baadshaho which also stars Ajay
Devgn, Emraan Hashmi, Ileana D'Cruz and Vidyut Jammwal. Baadshaho is slated to
release on September 1, 2017.
