Amala Akkineni has penned an open later on her Facebook page. In the letter, one sees the yesteryear actress slam the societal pressures of glamour.
Beginning with the question 'Will you let me age gracefully?', she goes on to suggest that size zero needn't be the standard bearer of fitness or beauty.
"Will you let me dress without feeling low self-esteem that I am not size zero anymore, nor that I wear the season`s couture? Will you let me stop colouring my hair, let me wear it short, without referring to my long tresses in Pushpak, at 19? The bad hair days get captured, not the wisdom I carry, and that`s demoralizing. Surely cameras can show the depth of a person and not just the surface?" she writes.
She further says, "Will you free me of the box office madness, the TRP wars, Page 3, the likes, the comments, the traps that menacingly surround everything we do? You have caught me in a time warp, a cage of fame, while my spirit is free."
