There
are
many
parents
out
there,
who
aren't
okay
with
the
idea
of
seeing
their
daughters
in
revealing
clothes,
and
when
it
comes
to
sporting
a
bikini
in
any
fashion
event,
it's
a
big
'no'.
However,
actress
Rakul
Preet
Singh
had
a
different
experience
when
she
told
her
parents
about
sporting
a
bikini
in
a
fashion
event
for
the
first
time,
and
their
reaction
had
her
all
surprised.
Recalling
the
moment,
Rakul
told
Pinkvilla
that
it
was
her
mother,
who
always
knew
that
she
had
a
the
potential
to
be
an
actress.
Rakul's
mom
told
the
entertainment
portal,
"There
used
to
be
auditions
and
I
told
her
about
it.
She
initially
was
telling
me,
'Aise
kaise?'
I
knew
she
can
do
it.
Then
I
moulded
her."
Rakul
also
revealed
that
before
participating
in
Miss
India
Pageant
in
2011,
she
used
to
nag
her
mom
to
let
her
wear
a
bikini
for
Miss
India.
The
De
De
Pyaar
De
actress
said,
"I
kept
telling
her
that
you
need
to
wear
a
bikini
for
Miss
India.
I
said
I'm
not
prepared
for
that.
But
she
was
confident.
She
said,
'You'll
prepare
for
it,
isme
kya
hai?"
Rakul
also
thanked
her
father
for
being
super
supportive
and
said,
"You
won't
believe
but
I
must
add
this
because
so
many
kids
don't
get
their
parents'
support.
But
my
mom
and
my
dad
were
more
comfortable
than
I
was
with
the
idea
of
wearing
a
bikini.
In
fact,
when
we
were
going
to
shop
for
the
bikinis,
my
dad
kept
telling
us
to
buy
vibrant
coloured
bikinis
and
not
the
dull
ones."
We're
sure
that
Rakul's
parents
are
extremely
proud
of
their
daughter!
