She added, “Truth is, I struggled to embrace how I looked at the time. I had never seen myself put on so much weight,” Apte admitted. “My body was swollen, I had shooting pains in my pelvis, and the lack of sleep distorted my perspective on everything. Now, not even two weeks into motherhood, my body looks different again.”

Apte also told Vogue, “My body was swollen, I had shooting pains in my pelvis, and the lack of sleep had skewed my perspective on everything. Now, not even two weeks into motherhood, my body looks different again.”

The Sacred Games star continued, “There are new challenges, new discoveries, and a different perspective has set in. I look at these photos with much kinder eyes and feel bad for being so hard on myself. Now, I can see only beauty in these changes, and I know I will cherish these photos forever.”
