Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone, who is blessed with a good figure, says she does not believe in being size zero as the Indian body type is not meant for it.
"I believe that it's nice to be little full and have a nice shape," she added.
The Bollywood actress was the show stopper for designer duo Shantanu & Nikhil's show at the Lakme Fashion Week here Sunday.

According to Deepika, an actress gets a role for her performance and not the body type.
"In the (film) industry, body size doesn't matter. What matters is how much an actor contributes through his performance and not his body size," explained Deepika.
"It is important that every person should wear clothes that go with their body - the cut, the fabric make a lot of difference," she added.
