The NH10 star recently gave an interview to Vogue Magazine where she spoke about her controversial lip job from two years ago.
“I have nothing to hide,” she said. “So when I spoke about my lip job, a lot of people called me brave for coming out. But I did what I had to [for my role in Bombay Velvet]. I’m not going to lie and say I didn’t; I had to take ownership. I wanted fans to know that I’m human and not perfect.”
The star was trolled when she debuted her new lips at Bollywood talk show Koffee with Karan in February 2014.
Back then, she had come up with a different explanation for her look, “For a short while now, I have been using a temporary lip enhancing tool and that along with makeup techniques (I have learnt over the years) is the reason why there might be a change in the appearance of my lips. Having stated this fact let me very vehemently assure everyone that I have by no means went ‘under the knife ‘ or done any kind of ‘plastic surgery’ or undergone any intrusive procedure. This was my decision and was done for the sake of my look in my upcoming film Bombay Velvet, a period drama where I play a jazz singer in the 1960s – 70s . And it was taken from the referencing of that time.”
Now, she admits that she messed up.
“The drastic change in my appearance on KWK is due to a lot of factors put together and not just my lips. Everyone goes through good and bad days. Did I think I looked good on the KWK episode? NO. I do feel I could have done things differently.”
We hope Anushka’s latest statement puts an end to the furore about her lip job once and for all.
