Break-up woes take a toll on Neha Pendse

It looks like the stress of a failed relationship is taking a toll on Neha Pendse. The leading lady for May I Come In Madam? Is struggling to shed the weight that she has piled on, in the last three months. Opening up about the issue, Neha says, “The crisis that I am undergoing is because of the break-up that happened one-and-a-half years ago. I immersed myself in work to distract my mind.” But she soon realised that focusing on her work wasn’t the solution. She says, “But that was a wrong decision. In hindsight, I would say that it is better to address the issue instead of ignoring it.”

The actress further continues, “The break-up took a toll not just emotionally but physically as well. The stress caused an hormonal imbalance in my body and now I have ended up with weight woes. I have put on 7 kgs in just the last three months.” She continues, “The camera makes the weight gain look drastic. In fact, many people who have been following the show have brought it to my notice. It doesn’t help that I need to wear a lot of western clothes for the role. There is no way for me to hide the flab.”

Neha now urges people to take care of one’s mental and physical health as well. “We pay a lot of attention to our diet, but never to our mental health. I have started medication, and it will take me time to lose those extra kilos,” adds the actress.
