Veteran actor and producer Arun Pandian's daughter and actress Keerthi Pandian has stunned everyone with her latest bikini photoshoot which has turned heads on social media. Keerthi took to her official Instagram page to share the pictures from her photoshoot and while doing so, she penned a heartfelt note. Keerthi Pandian recalled her school days where people made jokes about her lean look and called her 'Kuchi'. Keerthi mentioned that the so-called jokes hit her deep inside and it took an emotional toll on her. Keerthi also shared her fitness journey, recalling how challenging it was.
Talking about it, Keerthi posted, "It took a lot of me to decide and try (again) to gain weight. The fitness journey started off as a preparation for a role that I wanted to gain weight for. It made me realise nothing is impossible mentally or physically when we set our mind and heart to it fully. If you want something real bad, all forces around you will work as much as you to make it achievable. What seemed impossible to me, what seemed like a place I would never reach, I made it possible. 6 months of rigorous training and excessive eating. Waking up by 5AM to start my meals, most times I would have to take mini walking breaks WHILE eating so that I don’t puke. Every 100 grams I gained was a big win and even this change is a huge celebration for me!".
Keerthi also mentioned that she featured in the photoshoot for her own satisfaction and self-love. Talking about the photoshoot, she said, "I did this for myself and not to satisfy people’s insecurities about themselves that they project on others. I love myself now just as much as I loved myself before and will love myself just as much in whatever shape, size or colour. Honestly I was super skeptical about the shoot and photos but then, people will stare and talk anyway, might as well add some glam to it! ✨". Keerthi Pandian currently has two films in her lineup - Kannagi directed by debutant Yashwanth, and an untitled romantic drama with Vinoth Kishan.
