Kajol, 40, said that rather than asking his heroines to lose weight Chopra ensured they were well-fed on the sets.
Speaking at an event marking the 1000-week of YRF’s ‘Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge’, the actress said, “Yash ji was the only director who never asked his heroines to lose weight unlike today.
“While doing a movie everyone is very conscious about their weight and diet. But whenever I worked with him, he always made sure that actors ate properly,” she said.
Many actresses in Bollywood prefer to have a waif-like figure with Kareena Kapoor even dropping to size-zero for YRF’s ‘Tashan’. In the recent past, Sonam Kapoor, Sonakshi Sinha, Parineeti Chopra and Alia Bhatt have dropped oodles of weight for their movie roles.
