A lot of Bollywood actresses get trolled online for their looks and body shape. This time, Sonakshi Sinha body shamed for being fat! She has been subjected to trolling and criticism for her weight.
Sonakshi Sinha Body Shamed For Being Fat!
Sonakshi Sinha, who has been in the industry for more than nine years, entered in the Bollywood industry with the Salman Khan-starrer Dabangg. She has not only impressed millions with her spectacular performances but has also inspired many with her weight loss transformation. Recently, Sonakshi made an appearance on Arbaaz Khan’s chat show, Pinch where the actress has slammed body shamers with her apt response. She revealed that she has been trolled on social media multiple times due to her weight or body. At one event, one of the celebrity columnists and model had referred to her as a cow saying “What is this cow doing on the catwalk?”

Sonakshi Sinha Slammed Body Shamers
On Arbaaz Khan’s chat show, after reading and reacting to some harsh comments about her on social media, Sonakshi addressed all her trolls-
“Earlier, I used to read it and used to think how do people get themselves to say things like that because if you cannot say such things in front of someone how do you get the strength to say such things online. Koi aakar mujhe ye samne bole mai do mukke na de dun usko.”
She mentioned that she has worked day in and out to reduce her weight as well as to gain strength. But despite the hard work she has put in maintaining a healthy and fit lifestyle, people still comment on her body and looks. Speaking about the comments questioning her weight on social media, she further added-
“When I did Dabangg (2010), you had seen me before that also and I was very very big, I was unhealthy, I was unfit and I lost 30 Kgs to do your film and still people found words to say about me, about my shape, about how I looked.”
Later, candidly talking to Arbaaz, the 31-year-old actress said-
“Earlier, I used to go in the defensive space. I had put in so much effort, I have reduced so much, they have not seen the half of it. They have not seen the effort that has gone in, they have not seen the blood, sweat, and tears that have gone in. And, still they are talking so, to hell with it, mein jaisi hun vaisi rahungi, aapko dekhna hai aap dekho, nhi dekhna hai aap mat dekho.”
Sonakshi’s Upcoming Movie
On the movie front, Sonakshi will be seen next as Satya in Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions Kalank alongside Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sanjay Dutt, and Madhuri Dixit. The movie is Abhishek Varman’s period drama and will hit the screens on April 17.
I think there’s more to a person than just the physical appearance. So, it is very important for the audience to rise above looks and delve deeper into an artist’s work. What do you all think about this? Share your opinions in the comments section below.
