Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia on Saturday shunted the trolls about her excessive weight gain after the birth of her first baby, saying 'there is nothing to feel ashamed about'.
Taking to Twitter the actress said, "I don't owe anyone an explanation because fat shaming like this doesn't bother me one bit..."
"But I do want to address this as a larger problem because fat shaming needs to stop for everyone, not just celebrities", she quoted silencing her trollers.
"As a new mom I want to be fit, healthy and energetic for my daughter," she added.
Dhupia who is married to actor Angad Bedi said she takes working out seriously.
"Sometimes twice a day because for me... fitness is a priority and not fitting into society's standards regarding looks.바카라바카라
"And I hope in the future people are kinder to each other while making such vapid and vile comments," the 38-year-old added.
Apart from Neha Dhupia, many other Bollywood actresses have faced the heat of body shaming.
Actress Zareen Khan, who debuted opposite Salman Khan in Veer was bullied when she was a teen for her heavyweight.
However, she said nothing could ever hurt her as she used to ignore each of the negative comments. 바카라Inspite of being so big I never let people바카라s comments or ideas about me bother me. Because it바카라s my life and my body and only I have the right to decide what I바카라m gonna do with it,바카라 Khan said.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan too was slammed after the birth of her first baby due to her weight gain.
Speaking to media, her husband Abhishek Bachchan said, 바카라Yes, she바카라s a public figure, but people forget she바카라s also a woman and now a mother and there바카라s a line that바카라s not to be crossed. I don바카라t talk that way about any woman ever and it바카라s obviously not graceful for anyone to talk about her like that either.바카라
Bollywood actress Vidya Balan, who has been a constant subject of criticism too left no stones unturned to speak up for herself.
She said, 바카라바카라I love to work out but I am not trying to defy my body structure anymore. I can바카라t change my body type. But I can change the way I feel about my body. And most days I feel absolutely sexy바카라Of course, if I am not having a bad hair day.바카라바카라
Not just the actresses, but also some well-known actors have also shamed heavily for their body weight. However, they took it positively and answered back the haters in a smart way.
Actor Fardeen Khan, who was once the most sort after hunks in Bollywood was shamed for putting on a lot of weight due to some personal problems. The actor eventually addressed this on his facebook account.
He wrote: "Happy to have been the weekends entertainment for all you trollers. If you have had enough fun please take the time to look at your own reflection. If trolling is what makes you feel better about yourself, you have to seriously think about your future prospects. My best wishes."
