Amy Jackson on her new look
Speaking with ETimes, Amy Jackson opened up about the reason behind her new look. "I’m an actor and I take my job very seriously. For the last month, I’ve been filming a new project in the UK. So, for the character I am playing, I had to slim down and fully commit myself to the role," she said.
About getting trolled and receiving harsh comments, Amy added, "The online outcry from the (mainly male) Indian demographic is quite sad. I’ve worked with male co-stars who had to drastically change their look for a film, and they were highly praised for it. The moment a woman does it through unusual hair and makeup which doesn’t conform to their idealism of beauty, they think they have the right to troll you.'

I’ll get my flat cap and Brummie (Birmingham) accent ready for a Peaky Blinders comeback," said Jackson as she sportingly took the comparisons. For the unaware, Amy had posted her new transformation photos on social media.
