She said, “Genetically, I am thin. Everyone thinks that it is a blessing to be thin and it is, today at this age I can say it is a blessing but when I was younger, I was very conscious of being thin. I was so thin that I needed to eat the wrong things to keep my weight. I used to have jars of Nutella. I had lays stuffed in my cupboard. I used to eat fried food to look healthy. I used to lose so much weight that I used to be conscious of my body. My arms so naturally thin that I used to conscious of wearing sleeveless clothes. Till today, I wear sleeveless things, I wonder if I am looking too thin. At times, my own parents were worried about me if I am okay.”

Not just that, Sanaya also revealed how Mohit Sehgal and herself have eliminated sugar from their diet because diabetes runs in their family and she is very scared of it. She also said that Mohit is the one person who is her go-to person for experiments.
