Comfortable in her own skin

Shraddha Kapoor doesn’t mind being clicked without make-up

MUMBAI: The gorgeous Shraddha Kapoor has already made her mark in Bollywood not only because of her appearance but her immaculate work, in a short period of time.

The actor agrees ‘beauty lies in the eyes of beholder’ and she does not hesitate in being photographed without make-up. Being one of the most sought-after actors in Bollywood, she was asked if she is scared to go out without make-up. Shraddha told, “All the shutterbugs have got the picture of me without make up already.

“There were many times when I am out and I don’t know whether there is a photographer or not and I am caught without make-up. I am comfortable being shot without make-up. I think you have to be comfortable with your own skin and then make-up or no make-up, it won’t bother you much,” added the Ek Villain fame actor.

Shraddha feels, “make-up is very special moment in every girl’s life”. She recalled the first time when she had put it on to attend an annual function during her childhood days. “I was very young when I tried make-up for the first time. I was in junior KG class when I attended an annual function. There was a qawwali song with bunch of girls and I saw the pink shade of lipstick that my mom always used to wear. I was waiting to wear that lipstick and have some make up and blush. I have the picture too of that day and that’s when I was allowed to wear make-up,” said the daughter of actor Shakti Kapoor.

Shraddha made it big with Aashiqui 2 and Ek Villain. Revealing her make-up inputs during shoots, the actor said, “Absolutely. If I see something, I definitely give my input. But, there are so many talented make-up artists out there with so many ideas; it is always great to work with them.”
