Actress Zulin Aziz says she needs to lose more weight for camera

Malaysian actress and comedian Zulin Aziz has openly stated that she needs to shed more weight to achieve a more appropriate and appealing appearance on camera. The 37-year-old performer, whose real name is Farah Azleenda Abdul Aziz, acknowledged that the visual medium of television and film often presents actors as larger than their actual physical size.

Zulin is currently in the process of reducing her weight, emphasizing that her primary focus is on her health and how she feels about herself, rather than adhering to a specific number on the scale. However, she recognizes the professional necessity of maintaining a certain physique for her acting career.

“

Yes! I am still in the process of losing weight. I am not setting a target number as the main focus because for me, what is more important is health and how I feel about myself.

"Yes! I am still in the process of losing weight.

She elaborated that a particular weight is more suitable for camera appearances, as cameras tend to magnify size.

But, if it’s on camera, there is a certain weight that is more suitable. Cameras usually make us look bigger.

She further clarified that her motivation is not solely about looking beautiful but about ensuring her visual presentation on screen is fitting for her roles. "That's why I need to lose more weight so I look more suitable in front of the camera. It's not just about looking beautiful, but more about the suitability of the visual display on camera," she said.

Zulin had previously faced challenges in achieving her ideal weight. However, she noted that the implementation of movement control orders (PKP) since March 2020 provided a more convenient period for her to focus on her weight loss efforts.
