Anusha, you have been part of reality shows like MTV love school, India’s next top model, do you plan to do more reality shows in the future?
Ms. Anusha Dandekar
I know reality shows are the biggest genre taking over our screens these days in terms of addictive content… I love the shows I have done and do. They have all been so different and to watch people’s growth and your own from everything you take away from the show and the people you meet along the way, is definitely special. I love the shows I have done because they have never been scripted. So yes I would love to do more, with even more substance. My fav reality show right now is Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. It’s brilliant! I would love to be a part of something that brings people and communities together!

You recently turned an entrepreneur by launching your brand Brown Skin beauty, tell us more about it and how was your experience with launching your brand? Hardships and problems you came across
Ms. Anusha Dandekar
Well, I guess this is my reality show of bringing people and our community together! Launching this Brand has been one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Some days I dance with joy, cry with joy, sometimes I just cry coz I’m so tired hehe! Most days I am just focused on pushing our messaging, making sure we make everyone feel included in the beauty community, I feel overwhelmed with the msgs I receive from girls who have started embracing their skin tone and started loving themselves and say things like they love looking in the mirror now! I guess the hardships are like any other, building a brand over the phone and zoom calls! Yet online shopping and the Skin industry had a boom in business and we were lucky to be a part of that with so much heart, meaning, and great products to go with it!

Women Fitness India, talks about celebrity diets and fitness regimes, do you follow any special diets? What are your favorite midnight snacks?
Ms.Anusha Dandekar
Honestly, I have never believed in dieting. I believe in being grateful for any food we receive and eat. I believe in enjoying our blessings and if you are good at your food, it will be good for you. Also, everything is in moderation, humans tend to be greedy, and we should eat when we are hungry. I used to have the habit of eating every time I watch something. Now I watch something every time I have to eat! My fav snack though is popcorn, peanut butter, jam sandwiches, apple, and chips together sounds weird but it’s yum!
