Kalki Koechlin is prolific actress and there are no two opinions about it. Be it personal or professional struggles, the actress has been vocal and faced it like a true fighter.

Kalki Koechlin recalls being advised to get fillers done

While speaking on the BBC World Service podcast Dear Daughter, Kalki Koechlin said, “I remember once a producer telling me…He was talking about an ex of his, and she is quite a famous actress. And he was like, ‘Oh, she went a bit too far with the Botox.’ And he was like ‘All you need is a little filler for your laughter lines’. And I wanted to stab him with my fork. We were having lunch. But I kind of held myself back. And I smiled and I said, ‘well, I better stop smiling so much. I better laughing so much then.’ So I think my approach has been to take it with a pinch of salt and have some humour about it.”

She further added, “That was one moment I remember being ‘Gosh! This world and the pressures!’ I was in my 30s when this happened and I think I had already lived enough life to not be affected. But I know that 20-year-olds are being told this. And then they feel the pressure to go and change their face very early on.”

Kalki also said that as a celebrity, being constantly in front of the camera can lead to a heightened sense of self-consciousness. “Now there’s a new layer that has come in- age. And the fact that I have wrinkles, and that I’m still in front of the camera. So those wrinkles are very much prominent. I personally don’t want to do anything to my face, so I’ve got to be comfortable with that,” she shared.

On the work front, Kalki was last seen in Tamil suspense drama Nesippaya. Before that, she was seen in Kho Gaye Hum Kahan starring Ananya Panday, Adarsh Gourav and Siddhant Chaturvedi.
