Sonakshi Sinha slams trolls for body-shaming; says, “Dekhna hai dekho, mat dekhna hai mat dekho”

Bollywood actor, filmmaker and chat show host Arbaaz Khan recently played host to actress Sonakshi Sinha in the latest episode of his web show ‘Pinch’. The actress, who had marked her Bollywood debut opposite Salman Khan in ‘Dabangg’, opened up on being trolled for her weight.

Sonakshi Sinha confessed that she initially used to get perturbed about negative comments but at present, she does not pay much attention to it. On Arbaaz’s show, Sonakshi mentioned that she lost 30 kgs for her debut in ‘Dabangg’ but she still faced a lot of body shaming on the internet. Now, she prefers to working on herself rather than paying attention to body shamers.

Sonakshi said, “When I did ‘Dabangg’, 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. 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, main jaisi hun vaisi rahungi, aapko dekhna hai aap dekho aap ko mat dekhna hai aap mat dekho.”

She further added how she deals with online criticism and that is by blocking them on social media.

On the work front, Sonakshi Sinha will next be seen in period drama ‘Kalank’. The Karan Johar film also features Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit. It will be releasing on April 17, 2019.
