Actress Prarthana Fardin Dighi had been feeling uncomfortable after gaining weight suddenly. She felt she looked a little too bulky on screen. So, without wasting time, she began working on losing weight. In two months, she has already lost six kilos and now aims to lose another four.
Dighi once described herself as a “rice-loving Bengali”. Now, however, she eats rice only once a week and exercises regularly.
“I have lost six kilos in the past two months. I want to lose another four. I have removed carbohydrates from my diet. I was a complete rice-loving Bengali. But you can say rice has disappeared from my life for the past two months. Now I eat rice only one day a week,” Dighi said.
Instead of rice, her current diet includes boiled eggs, boiled vegetables and oil-free chicken cooked in an oven.
“My life is now oil-free and full of vegetables. I eat boiled eggs, boiled vegetables and oil-free chicken cooked in the oven,” she said.
Dighi has been following the routine for two months and plans to continue it until December. However, she does not want to reveal how much she weighed before or her current weight after losing six kilos.
“I eat everything except fat. I had gained quite a bit of weight. I do not want to say how much. Because of the weight gain, I looked a little bulkier on screen than I do now. So, I felt different about myself,” she said.
Her weight-loss plan is not only about feeling better about herself. She is also preparing for a new project that is currently being planned. The actress wants to become fitter for the work.
According to Dighi, staying fit makes her feel better about her appearance on screen. She believes that when she looks good on screen, she also receives more work offers.
Meanwhile, Dighi recently sparked curiosity by sharing photos in a new look from Cox’s Bazar sea beach. Many assumed she had gone there for a trip, but she was actually in Cox’s Bazar for a shoot.
Dighi first gained recognition in films as a child artiste before later working as a heroine. Her film Biday, directed by Mehedi Hasan Hridoy, is awaiting release.
She has also completed shooting for a web film directed by Sumon Dhar, in which Irfan Sajjad plays opposite her.
