TV actress Snehal Rai recently made headlines after she revealed being married to 21-year-older politician Madhvendra Kumar Rai for 10 years.

She also spoke about losing a lot of weight following the emotional pain due to the death of her son.
Speaking with Etimes TV, the actress recalled how she locked herself in a room and stopped eating after she lost her son. Snehal shared, “I had a son after marriage. We lost him due to an illness when he was 4 months old. His name was Rudra. I was locked in the room for a week. I would just go to the washroom and sit on my bed. I don’t remember eating. Life was finished for me.” Talking about how she almost became a skeleton, she added, “Losing a child is equal to hundred deaths. I had a friend who shook me back to reality. I was 40kgs, became a skeleton. I felt doing make-up was a sin, how could I show my face to the world?” ALSO READ: Snehal Rai Reveals She Is MARRIED To 21-Year- Older Politician For 10 Years; Actress Says ‘Our Relationship Has Seen Many Ups And Downs’
