Twitter Lashes Out At Parineeti Chopra After She Fat-Shamed A Friend!

Parineeti Chopra is currently touring the U.S with the Dream Team. Alia Bhatt and Parineeti wished a common friend their birthday wishes. Parineeti says, ‘eat less and become thin’ as Birthday resolution for her friend and took even Alia by surprise. Alia can be heard saying, ‘Arrey, poor thing’ in response to Parineeti’s comment. This video has gone viral and social media has called Parineeti as fake and that she is obsessed about body image.

 


Parineeti is facing such a backlash because she herself suffered a body image issue. She had come out publicly saying how she overcame her body issues. Her post was shared widely and she received positive reviews for setting an example, but this recent video has got her in trouble for her double standards.

 

BEFORE .. All my life, I have struggled with how I look, how I feel, and how people looked at me. I was constantly made fun of, but the person I was, I generously laughed with them. Today, many people ask me what triggered the weight loss, did I give in to the “bollywood pressure”? To that I say – thank god I became an actor and had that pressure! I am able to achieve what I couldn’t achieve otherwise. I feel more confident, I feel at peace, and I feel proud! Girls and women meet me all around the world, at airports, events, on the street; they hold my hand, hug me, and tell me their struggles and how I changed their lives. They show me their wallpapers, their wallets, and its all pictures of me!! They look at those pictures and want to make that change in their own lives. They look at my Built That Way campaign and have stuck it to their walls. I have seen women tear up and tell me I changed their life. Post delivery weight, teenage obesity, they are fighting it, and I am their inspiration. As an actor, There is no bigger achievement for me. I am glad to be a part of your life in this way. So thank you everyone. Thank You for making me feel loved. Like I always say – if I could do it. So can you. And I am always there for all of you …. Lots of love….
