She said, ‘I was sad. I was scared. I was scared because the media told us that if you are a woman, you have a shelf life. In the early 2000s, every actress who came to the industry was told that you should have a certain weight. You have to look a certain way. You should stay single.’ While talking about the industry Dia further said that many actresses used to hide their relationships for fear of not getting work. The actress said that thankfully things have changed and told how top Bollywood actresses are married and have successful careers as well as thriving families.

But it cannot control our existence.’ Now Dia Mirza will be seen along with Vijay Varma in ‘IC 814’.
