The pretty actress was in Delhi recently to walk the ramp at the couture week, and also for the shoot of a campaign against the taboos attached with menstruation. "Mujhe na hamesha bahut smiley-smiley dikhate hain," she complained. "I want to look a little, like..." "Serious?" suggested Shraddha's manager. "No, not serious; I don't know. I just don't want another smiley picture," she replied. Later, she explained, "It's just that I smile a lot, and I've realized that I need to keep it under control because my smile can get, like, real wide.
See," she said, giving us a demo of her 'wide' smile. "I have a lazy eye too - the left one; I have to keep waking it up," she added. Does Shraddha know that she's self-critical, then? "Ya, I guess I do know (snickers). But it's under control, you know. Like what's there is there. I just like to keep pushing myself to be better, you know. I am very well aware of who I am and what I can do," she answers.
I used to tease guys during my period because it embarrasses them- Since Shraddha is working to dispel the superstitions and taboos associated with menstruation, did she have to face some of those as a teen? "I remember that I definitely did not speak about it openly, because that's how they condition you, right? But yes, I used to tease the boys in my school.
I made it a point to tell them that I am on my period because that would make them turn all coy and shy, and I loved that. They would be like, 'How can you say that?' and I would say, 'Well, I just can.' The reactions of boys to this are very entertaining. I don't mind PMS jokes at all. In fact, I enjoy it, but what I enjoy even more is them getting all embarrassed," she laughs. "I don't PMS at all, though," she adds.
