Uyghur actress, Dilraba (迪丽热巴), has been filming plenty of variety shows this year. The last series she filmed was “Three Lives Three Worlds, The Pillow Book” (三生三世枕上书), which hasn’t even aired yet. On a recent variety show, she revealed when she first debuted she felt her looks were too distinct and would limit the roles she can get. She expressed, “There was a time where I drifted off. I felt I was suitable for more roles.” The reality was that other people also thought she was more suitable to film commercial work. Dilraba revealed she hadn’t filmed in 7-8 months and during that time period, she realized, “I have few options to choose from.”
