Sonakshi Sinha: Love Starts With Your Self

I am in a profession where people are always judging you, and people can be brutal. I realised pretty early on in my career that if I don't love myself, how are other people gonna love me?” This is the first thing our cover star Sonakshi Sinha tells us when we ask her why her idea of love begins with the self. It is, after all, February, and all conversations circle back to love in its many forms.

It is rather poetic that the desire to not be judged has led the actor to create “a force field for (herself), made entirely out of self-love, where none of the vitriol can get to her. “I'm not very harsh with myself. I speak to myself as I would to a friend if they were feeling down. People can be very self-deprecating and very hard on themselves, so, once you learn to be kind to yourself, that's how you end up being kind to other people, she explains with the type of clarity that is usually forged in the fires of intense introspection.
