Apr 23, 2022 02:27 AM IST

Long before body positivity, self-care and mental health became buzzwords, actor Keira Knightley, 37, was a strong advocate of these causes

Keira Knightley may have caught India’s attention when she played Jules in Gurinder Chadha’s Bend It Like Beckham 20 years ago.

Actor Keira Knightley’s message to all the women: “What you have to say or think is more important than being channelised towards the world’s perspective of better living” (Black Dog)
