Dolly Singh has received a lot of support from fans and fellow celebrities in the comments section
Actress and content creator Dolly Singh has shared a poignant note on body shaming and her long journey of accepting her body. In her note, the actress shared that she has struggled with gaining weight, grown up “despising” her body and has often been on the receiving end of unkind remarks. In her candid reflection, Dolly Singh bravely opens up about the struggles many face with body image, striking a chord with countless individuals – celebrities and fans alike – who have grappled with similar struggles. In her note, Dolly Singh wrote: “Like most people, my weight fluctuates too. Being on the naturally skinny side of the spectrum, I tend to lose weight easily (when I don't want to) and it's hard to put it back on. Last few months of finishing up the house, adulting and stressing took away the few good kgs I had gained over the last few years.”
Sharing her reaction to this development, Dolly Singh explained: “Honestly, this time I wasn't worried about it. I know that if I get back on my routine, work out, eat on time and with intention, I'll slowly get there. There is no hurry. I love my body now. I love my body in every state because it supports me. I have come to believe that and honestly, I feel proud about that. I have grown up despising my body, hating every bit of it, so this...is growth.”
Dolly Singh then spoke about the concept of “safe spaces” adding, “But as much as I have accepted it to shapeshift every now and then, people around me don't. And the other day, as I was about to go see someone, I decided against it because I realised, they're not my safe space. That I'm sure they'll have something to say about my weight. About my lost 'glow' or whatever term they'd wanna use to make me believe it's out of care (maybe it is, but keep it to yourself unless asked). It doesn't hurt the 30-year-old me, but the 13-year-old? It takes me back to the bad days sometimes.”
