In the same interview, Sameera Reddy shared that ten years ago, there was a trend in the industry where people were going to any length to achieve B-town’s ‘ideal beauty standards’. Opening up about that traumatic time, Sameera admitted that even she started doubting herself and starved herself to lose weight. Not only this, the actress also admitted that she used to survive on a single piece of idli, as losing weight was much needed for her if she wished to make it into showbiz. Recalling the same, Sameera said:
"I think there was a crazy phase about 10 years ago where everybody was getting plastic surgery, breast enhancement surgery, change nose or bone structure.
