While some mock their choices to go under the knife, others believe it\u2019s a personal choice. But one can\u2019t deny that celebrities, now more than ever, find themselves under harsh public scrutiny for the way they look, which reiterates the unrealistic beauty standards of Bollywood. Speaking exclusively to News18 Showsha, Yami Gautam Dhar reveals that she too was told to change her appearance but decided to not succumb to it. <\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">She tells us, \u201cThese things happen. I\u2019m sure that almost every girl goes through it, every female actor goes through it. And it usually happens when you\u2019re very new and vulnerable and it becomes very easy for people to give you advice. Sometimes they don\u2019t mean harm and they genuinely mean it. You can figure that out by seeing if any of their advice has worked on any of your colleagues. You do have access to people [who can change the way you look] but I\u2019m not the kind of person who would do that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">For Yami, the idea is to understand when to turn a deaf year to these free advices. \u201cYou\u2019ve to be mentally very strong to cut that noise out for yourself. There\u2019s no satiating point there. There\u2019s no full stop to it. Today, it\u2019s going to be something about your face and tomorrow, it could be something else. I would just listen to their advice and smile and that\u2019s it. Months later, they would meet me and tell me, \u2018You didn\u2019t take any of my advice, did you, darling?\u2019&#8221; she says. <\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">So, what\u2019s that one suggestion she remembers vividly? \u201cI was told to change one of my eyebrows \u2013 that it needs to be shaped in a way so that the curve can be removed as that would make me look edgier and cooler. They perhaps wanted my eyebrow to look like two snails approaching each other from either side (laughs)! He was a very senior make-up artist. My heart really sank and I just told him that we should move on and get ready,&#8221; recalls Yami. <\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">A reason why she decided to never opt for these aesthetic surgeries is that it would interfere with her job as an actor. \u201cIt\u2019s about perspective also. But that\u2019s not the idea of beauty for me. For someone else, it could be an editorial call. When you see somebody that looks that way on a magazine cover, it may look really cool. But I\u2019m an actor. When you see me onscreen, you shouldn\u2019t have to focus on why my face, cheeks or lips is looking unnatural. That can\u2019t become a distraction,&#8221; Yami states. <\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">She further adds, \u201cEven if I wasn\u2019t an actor, I wouldn\u2019t have undergone any such procedure that alters the structure of my face or puts anything I don\u2019t believe in into my skin. At that moment, it could make you look good but it could\u2019ve consequences later. It\u2019s also something that you need to do again and again. But duniya bahot badi hai. To each, his own. If it makes someone happy, that\u2019s great. But if someone\u2019s doing it under pressure, that\u2019s sad.&#8221; <\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Titas Chowdhury\" title=\"Titas Chowdhury\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2025\/01\/titas-2025-01-b0c6b77d16010a8373e9dd06ecd2c5f7.png?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/titas-chowdhury-22645.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Titas Chowdhury<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Titas Chowdhury is a Principal Correspondent at News18 Showsha.
