Bollywood actor Lara Dutta is on the path to embracing her inner true beauty. The actor took to her Instagram account and shared two pictures of herself where in one she can be seen without makeup, and in another, she can be seen all decked up.

Taking to Instagram, Lara wrote a long post where she explained that she is keeping it real, and she also emphasised that no one wakes up looking all glam and decked up. However, there are days when a person has to let their skin breathe and embrace the true meaning of beauty.

Sharing the post, Lara wrote, “Keeping it real!!! This was me at 7 pm tonight, right after a killer workout that wiped me out!!! The next image is me 2 hours later, ready to head out to celebrate my fraternity. What’s the point??? Just that it’s important to know that none of us wake up looking like the way we do in the numerous glam photos you see of us!! It takes a small village to get us there!! In my case, hairdresser extraordinaire @clarabellesaldanha, my trusty makeup pouch, and favorite, jewelled tone colour. No matter how your days been, it’s important to get dressed and show up- for yourself."
