Actor Urvashi Dholakia who became a household name after playing the iconic role of 'Komolika' in 'Kasautii Zindagii Kay' recently uploaded several photos of herself in a bikini. After the pictures went viral, many users pointed out Urvashi's visible stretch marks in the photo. Now, in an interview, while speaking about the same, Urvashi has said that having stretch marks should be normalised, which is why she didn't shy away from posting pictures that showed her own on social media.
Urvashi, who is a single mother, to two sons in their mid-twenties, said that she is proud of her body and that it symbolise the fact that 'life grew within (her)'.

Elaborating on the same, Urvashi said, "I'm aware of how people try to bully women, who choose to dress a certain way after they become mothers. But I would like to ask, who has made these rules? Koi mujhe rok ke batao (Somebody tell me). I love my body. Stretch marks and cellulite are inconsequential, they are just marks, like a tattoo! My stretch marks are proof that life grew within me, no one can take that away from me."
She further added, "Also, posting such pictures is not about making a point. I don't see the need to make one. I don't remember anybody questioning a man who roams shirtless on a beach after he's become a father. The same rule applies here. I was at the pool and this is what people across the globe wear to the pool. You only live once. I don't think we should waste our time in explaining our actions."
On the work front, Urvashi has had a colourful career in the television industry for many years. The actor has been a part of shows such as 'Dekh Bhai Dekh', 'Shaktimaan', and 'Ghar Ek Mandir'. She also participated in and had won 'Bigg Boss 6'.
