Tejasswi Prakash reveals she was called 'hanger' in school for being 'extremely skinny'

Bigg Boss 15 winner Tejasswi Prakash, who is currently seen in Ekta Kapoor's supernatural thriller Naagin 6, opened up about being skinny-shamed in school in her recent interview with iDiva.

Tejasswi revealed how she was mocked by school mates and called a 'hanger'. Some even joked how she'd fly away as she was 'extremely skinny'.

The actress said, "I used to be extremely skinny in school. Like people used to call me a hanger. I was extra skinny. So when we used to play on our school playground then people used to tell me, 'Keep a Rs 5 coin in your pocket or you'll fly away'."

Not just this, Tejasswi also spoke about the red flags in a relationship and clarified that her accent in Naagin 6 is not at all British.

Tejasswi sparked engagement rumours recently after she posted photos of her flaunting a diamond ring. The actress even called it her 'big day' in the caption. It certainly misled many until her beau Karan Kundrra clarified it was an ad.

Tejasswi met Karan inside the Bigg Boss house. The two fell in love with each other and the rest as they say is history.

Another season of Bigg Boss awaits, and several popular names from the showbiz who could potentially be part of the sixteenth edition are already doing the rounds including Bhabhi Ji fame Shubhangi Atre and actress Madirakshi Mundle.
