If there is one thing Uorfi knows, it’s how to capture everyone’s attention. Whether with her bold outfits, witty comments, or personality, she consistently makes headlines and is an all-around entertainer. Uorfi Javed, who rose to prominence for her participation in Bigg Boss OTT, is now one of the most talked-about social influencers and entertainers. However, behind her bindaas attitude, there is a person who has also struggled with the unrealistic standards that society has set. In a recent conversation with Anshula Kapoor, the influencer got candid about the same.
Uorfi Javed gets candid about her struggle with body dysmorphia
Uorfi Javed is known for her bold fashion choices and outspoken public persona. Now, in a conversation with Anshula Kapoor on her YouTube channel, Bunkk, the influencer opened up about a deeply personal chapter from her life. Uorfi got candid about her struggle with body dysmorphia and harmful eating habits. She revealed that she has suffered from the disorder for an extremely long time and would often stop eating just because she wanted to be thinner. She was quoted as saying:
“I developed body dysmorphia 3–4 years ago. I was starving. I stopped eating. I just wanted to be this really skinny person — like extremely skinny — so I just stopped eating. I would eat 3–4 chicken pieces a day and not even work out. I would just run.”
In the same conversation, Uorfi Javed revealed that she was on a constant mission to be a certain body type. However, this came at a massive emotional cost. The influencer revealed that she would always be cranky because she hadn’t eaten properly for days. She was quoted as saying:
“Mentally, I was f**ked. I was always cranky, and I was always annoyed. If anyone spoke to me, I would be like, ‘Why are you talking to me?'”
Uorfi Javed recalls only smelling food for days
In the same conversation, Uorfi Javed revealed that while she is in a better place now, having started going to the gym and lifting weights, it was not always that way. She added that while she is eating well now, she doesn’t care about being skinny. To this, Anshula Kapoor recalled how she initially refused sweets on set, only to change her mind later. She stated:
“On the first couple of days, Uorfi would just smell the desserts, but by the third day onwards, she was like, ‘I only want to eat desserts.'”
For the unversed, Uorfi and Anshula recently appeared on Karan Johar’s Traitors. Uorfi emerged as the winner of the show. However, her participation in the series came with a lot of stress eating during the shoot. Uorfi recalled that she eventually surrendered to her cravings and ended up eating all the desserts available. Despite the highs and lows, Uorfi has been extremely resilient, and her shared victory with poker player Nikita Luther is a testament to that. Anshula Kapoor, on the other hand, was eliminated in the eighth episode during the Circle of Shaq segment.
