Zareen Khan wasn't the conventional slim and trim Bollywood actress when she entered the film industry with "Veer" but she seems to have lost a lot of weight. She says it's not for a film but for the media.

"No, it's not for any film. I have lost the weight for you all (media)...there was a lot of criticism from you all," Zareen told reporters at an event.

The actress had to go through a lot of criticism for her weight when she joined the film industry. However, she is said to have been switching between power yoga, cardio bootcamp and weight training to get into shape.

Last seen in "Housefull 2", she will now soon be seen in director Remo D'Souza's next project, starring Rajeev Khandelwal.

"I just finished shooting for a film which features Rajeev and myself. I am also doing a Punjabi film," said Zareen.
