Sonali Bendre, who is busy talking about her new show , recently shared some tough memories from her early days in the movies. In an interview with Hauterrfly, she talked about how producers used to criticize her body.

Talking about her journey in Bollywood, Sonali admitted that she never felt like she was doing great in her career. She felt nervous and unprepared because she wasn’t trained as an actor or dancer when she entered the industry. “I was just learning as I went along, and that made me nervous. I never really enjoyed the journey,” she said.
