“To all those who keep commenting on my weight, whether it’s a full picture, or a close up where you can’t see jack. Take a good look at this picture. Now get this: 1) This ain’t ever gonna be me. 2) Get over it. 3) I wish u could see which finger I hold up for shallow and idiotic people like yourself.”

Vidya Balan

“A fat girl always feels like a boy will not like her because of her weight. But there is only so much a boyfriend, a husband and your family can do. But I know that love is non-negotiable and at the end of the day, you have to come to terms with who you are…My weight is nobody’s business.”

She couldn’t have said it in a better way that a girl’s body weight is her business and not anyone else’s. If you are unhappy with your body, it will show in your life and on your face. She has received so much flak for her body weight and her dressing sense, but she has always fought back and has gone against the industry’s convention of the size zero frame.

The pretty actress graced a magazine cover in a fierce avatar which got everyone talking! She has always faced backlash for her weight and curvaceous body but she has always maintained that she does not believe in starving for fitness and just want to be healthier version of hers, if people don’t like it then it’s their problem and certainly not hers!

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

“In this industry it comes as standard when an actress becomes a mother the focus isn’t on her health, it’s on how fast she loses her weight. I don’t worry about this; to me my well-being and the health of my family is more important than focusing on going back to my pre-pregnancy body in miracle time.”

The most beautiful woman faced so many backlashes for her post-pregnancy figure!

“This (body shaming) will soon become a past. Everything comes in phases. If you yourself are not comfortable about your body, do something about it. If you are comfortable, let it be. Other people have no right to comment anyway,”
