Vidya had once said that her weight gain had become national news and rightly so. Everywhere she went, she was quizzed on her weight gain and what she plans to do with it. Speaking about being comfortable in your own skin, Vidya had once quoted to a leading media portal that she has always been a 'fat girl,'
She had further said, "For the longest time, I hated my body. I thought it had betrayed me. On the days I was under the pressure of looking my best, I would bloat up and I would be so angry and frustrated. Over time, I accepted that my body is the only thing that is keeping me alive because the day my body stops functioning, I am not going to be around. I have a lot of gratitude for my body."
