Sonakshi Sinha has time and again talked about how she has been body-shamed several times by the netizens. Since her debut in Dabangg, the actress has been shamed for her body shape and size. However, now, the actress has decided to finally open up about it. Here, read to know.
Talking to ETimes, “It hit home so hard when the script came to both of us. I would never have done that film with anyone else but Huma. It’s so important to both of us. Body and weight-shaming have happened to both of us for years in our lives. It happened from the beginning of our careers in this line, and it still happens. It hasn’t stopped.”
The actress further added, “No matter what size you are, people are always discussing it, which I think is bordering on the unnecessary now. We talk endlessly about cutting out discrimination on the basis of sex, colour and race. Why leave out body size and weight?”
She added, “Size should also be on that list of things that we should not be discriminated against. It was so important to do a film like this that tells you about two individuals – two women, who are talented and believe in living it up on their terms. The question is: why is that so hard to digest for people if it happens in real life?” as quoted by Bollywood Bubble.
