"I have never considered myself to be beautiful. I didn't have the face to be an actress. The metamorphosis of Shilpa Shetty was slow and steady. See my first film and see me today. There's a vast difference. I have changed so much. Physically, mentally. At that point of time, I was a college-going girl and never thought that I could ever be in films.There's name, fame, glamour. It's only when you enter this industry, you realise that there's hard work too", - Shilpa Shetty
