Most
of
us
remember
her
for
her
striking
resemblance
to
Aishwarya
Rai.
Yes,
you
got
it
right!
We
are
talking
about
Salman
Khan's
discovery
Sneha
Ullal.
The
light-eyed
actress
made
her
debut
opposite
the
superstar
in
'Lucky:
No
Time
For
Love'.
Sadly,
the
audience
too
had
no
time
for
this
film
and
it
tanked
terribly
at
the
box
office.
Sneha
was
last
seen
in
Telugu
film
Antha
Nee
Mayalone
in
2014,
and
then
she
simply
vanished
from
the
film
circuit.
Now
the
actress
is
all
set
to
begin
her
second
innings
in
Tollywood
with
debutant
director-actor
Charantej's
Ayushman
Bhava
starring
Amala
Paul
as
lead.
In
a
recent
interview
with
Times,
Sneha
revealed
what
kept
her
away
from
films
and
more.

It's
Not
A
Comeback
"I
would
like
to
clarify
that
it's
not
a
‘comeback'.
I
think
a
comeback
is
when
you
intentionally
leave
the
industry
and
try
to
make
a
return."
I
Wasn't
Doing
Films
Due
To
Severe
Health
Issues
"I
never
left
the
industry;
it's
just
that
I
wasn't
doing
films
due
to
severe
health
issues.
A
lot
of
my
fans
kept
asking
me
where
I
have
disappeared
all
these
four
years,
why
I
wasn't
doing
films.
Well,
I'm
here
now."
She
Was
Diagnosed
With
An
Auto-Immune
Disorder
Talking
about
it,
Sneha
was
quoted
as
saying,
"It's
a
blood-related
illness
where
my
own
immune
system
kept
me
unwell."
Not
Able
To
Stand
On
Her
Feet
For
More
Than
30-40
Minutes
"My
body
would
become
so
weak
that
I
would
not
be
able
to
stand
on
my
feet
for
more
than
30
to
40
minutes
and
because
I
kept
shooting
for
films
even
with
this
illness,
it
got
worse."
No
Strength
To
Do
What
An
Actress
Is
Expected
To
Do
"Beyond
a
point,
I
didn't
have
the
strength
to
do
what
an
actress
is
expected
to
do
-
running
around,
dancing
and
continuous
shooting
etc.
That's
when
I
had
to
stop
and
start
my
medication,
because,
there
was
no
point
in
doing
films
and
then
falling
sick
every
other
day."
Physically
I
Was
Weak
But
Mentally
I
Was
Strong
"Physically
I
was
weak
but
mentally
I
was
strong
all
throughout
these
four
years.
All
my
close
friends
in
Mumbai
and
the
south
kept
boosting
my
morale
at
every
point.
Along
with
medication
I
stated
working
on
my
fitness
to
gain
strength."
She
Didn't
Wanted
To
Step
Outside
The
House
"There
were
times
when
I
did
not
look
great,
and
when
you're
not
at
your
best,
you
don't
want
to
step
out
of
the
house
and
that's
what
I
did.
I
stopped
attending
events,
missed
so
many
award
functions,
because
as
an
actress
you
have
to
look
good
all
the
time.
And
if
you
don't,
people
won't
understand
why."
My
Illness
Is
Under
Control
Now
"I'm
here,
fully
fit
and
fine.
I
won't
say
I'm
cured
because
this
disease
is
like
diabetes
which
is
not
curable
but
can
be
kept
under
control.
So
my
illness
is
under
control
right
now
and
I'm
set
to
get
going."
Well,
Sneha
surely
needs
to
be
applauded
for
handling
the
situation
bravely
and
inspiring
girls
who
give
up
hope
when
faced
with
such
a
scenario.
