Anushka in her magazine interview admitted that she was "worried" whether she will end up "hating" her body after having a baby. The actor said despite she is someone who is "fairly self-aware" she was afraid because of the "pressure that's thrust upon women to look a certain way, even before they become mothers before they get pregnant, and definitely after they've had a baby."
Anushka also said that body confidence is nothing but a state of mind and it has "nothing to do with how you look." The actor further added, "My body's not as it used to be; it's not as toned as it was. And I'm working towards it because I like to be fit. Having said that, I am so much more comfortable in my skin today than I was before, even when I had that perfect body."

The actor who is also busy producing groundbreaking content with her brother Karnesh Sharma said that she has stopped "obsessively scrutinising" the way she looks.
Anushka said, "I don't do that anymore. I click a picture and I post it without obsessively scrutinising how I look. You have to be accepting of the body that's done something so profound and miraculous for you. I'd never want my daughter to grow up with that sense of lacking that we're always made to feel as women. Ultimately, it's all about perspective. The girl who has the 'perfect' body can still not feel great while the girl who doesn't have a body that aligns with societal beauty standards can still, be immensely confident."
