Recently, a famous Bollywood actress penned down that actresses aren’t perfect either and have a whole lot of people working on them to make them look the way that they do. Do you also believe it is about time that female celebrities must share their real selves with fans to inspire self-love and self-confidence. Also, Share a few mantras, from your own beauty regime, for healthy skin and hair?
ES:
Yes, no one is perfect and yes we are blessed to have an army of experts around us who makes us look the way we do in front of the camera. Yes, we must share our real selves and to be very honest I often share unedited, unfiltered selfies on my social media. I believe in natural, organic and sustainable living and I promote that too. For healthy skin I exfoliate my skin from time to time and I keep myself hydrated. Oiling your hair is a great way to keep it healthy. This tip was given to me by my mom and I follow it religiously and would recommend it to everyone else too. Also I have a blog named “Evelyn’s Secrets” where I reveal all my beauty, fitness and other secrets for my fans.

2018 nearing to an end what are you looking forward to in the new year 2019?
ES:
Early this year I launched my new venture WIP Creatives because I wanted to build a stronger team for myself and for my friends in the industry. We’re a small boutique agency and want to provide a kind of service that no one else offers: career coaching, image development, and content creation – all in one. I would like it to do well in the coming year and serve the purpose I have started it for. Also I am looking forward to the release of my South Indian debut film Saaho. It is the biggest film ever made in India and I feel lucky to be a part of this movie. I have played an out and out action role which I haven’t played ever before. Also looking forward to more good work and movies. And yes looking forward to good health, world peace and happiness all around in the coming year.

The #MeToo movement has struck us all at a global level and now more and more women are coming out to voice their stories in our country too. What is your take on this?
ES:
I’ve been in this industry for a long time and have experienced a lot of disrespectful behavior towards women. I left the talent agency that managed me in the start of my film career because of that reason and since then hired and trained my own team. I personally wouldn’t like to accuse anyone, but would like to mentor new girls by sharing my story of overcoming struggles. Also I have launched my new venture WIP Creatives because I wanted to build a stronger team for myself and for my friends in the industry. WIP Creatives which is a small boutique agency and want to provide a kind of service that no one else offers: career coaching, image development, and content creation – all in one.
