The actress says she made the decision on purpose after experiencing body shame. Shehnaaz Gill became widely recognized after appearing in season 13 of Bigg Boss. Due to her positive attitude, she quickly became a fan favorite and was one of the show’s most watched candidates.

After the episode aired, she quickly rose to fame and became a household name. A radical change occurred after she made an appearance in a glamorous outfit she never wore on the show. The talk show host discusses the transition and says she experienced body shame because of her weight.

In the recent Eid release Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, Shehnaaz Gill made her Bollywood debut alongside Salman Khan. She had a close relationship with Bhaijaan throughout their time together on Bigg Boss 13.

The Punjabi singer has undergone significant change since she was eliminated from the Big Brother house as the runner-up. She went on a strict diet, exercise routine, and wardrobe overhaul. She says she made the move on purpose because of the criticism she received for her Bigg Boss look.

The actress discussed her efforts to better herself in an interview with the Press Trust of India (PTI). Shehnaaz Gill claims that she improved herself by taking others’ suggestions to heart. Several fat-shaming comments were made during her Bigg Boss viewing.

Professionally, she runs a Youtube chat show under the name Desi Vibes with Shenaaz Gill. In the Hindi film Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, she made her debut among a slew of other actors.

The actress has recently wrapped production on her upcoming film alongside Rhea Kapoor. Anil Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar are also rumored to be in the cast. Along with Nora Fatehi and Ritesh Deshmukh, Shehnaaz is expected to appear in Sajid Khan’s 100%.
