Once again, the unreasonable beauty standards Bollywood imposes for actresses are brought to light by Shehnaaz Gill’s explanation of the genuine reason for losing weight. Fans are frequently taken aback by Shehnaaz Gill’s incredible makeover. She regularly wears jaw-droppingly chic ensembles that serve as an inspiration to everyone around her.
Big Boss Star
In 2019, the Bigg Boss 13 star wore a plain salwar kameez when she appeared on national television, and the public loved her for it. After she entered the mansion, she gained a legion of devoted followers from every corner of the globe. After Sidharth Shukla’s death, however, Shehnaaz’s transformation into a new person became the talk of the town. She has consistently been subjected to harsh criticism.
Many of her followers have commented on her photos and videos that she was prettiest the way she was, despite her extra weight. Shehnaaz, surprisingly, approved of her plump appearance. The actress from Thank You for Coming explained why she needed to lose weight in a viral video that went viral despite the fact that she preferred her larger size.
“I’ve come to terms with the fact that, if I want to make a living in this field, I need to lose weight so that I can fit into designer clothes. I really prefer curvy women to those who obsessively watch what they eat and drink, so if I weren’t in this field I’d be happy to be on the larger side”, she added.
Shehnaaz alluded, in a roundabout way, to the unattainable beauty standards that persist in the profession. Ultimately, you cast a heroine that fits a specific body type, no matter how much you promote body positivity. Such hypocrisy!
Once again, Shehnaaz deserves praise for being forthright. Those who make assumptions about her may be wrong; she has changed, but her integrity remains the same. The actress revealed that she was once requested to portray a heavier version of Shehnaaz, but she politely declined the assignment.
