Kriti Sanon shares her thoughts on Body Shaming

Bollywood actress Kriti Sanon has openly shared her thoughts about body shaming. The 31-year-old actress has got a positive feedback for the character portrayed by her in the movie Mimi.

In a recent interview with Bollywood Bubble, Kriti shared that she got criticized by people for her "gummy smile" and "flared nostrils." She said, "There had been times when I was told to line my lips to (make it) look fuller. It didn’t make sense to me. I was also told that my nostrils flare up a little bit when I smile. So, yes there will be criticism from everywhere. When I smile or laugh, sometimes they do but that’s normal na. I am not a plastic doll." 

Further, she added, “People told me ‘You have gummy smile’. That I am born with, I can’t do anything about it. These are little little things that people don’t say it directly ki ‘yeh change karo'. I feel like those things everyone hears. Someone was telling me now it’s not the pressure, but I think the pressure is increasing with all these Instagram filters and everything coming, everyone wants to be perfect all the time. So, I have gone through that, heard things. Someone asked me to make my waist a little more in. Sometimes random people also say things. You have to make sure that you are not listening to just everybody", the actress added in the same interview. 

On the work front, Kriti has some exciting projects coming up such as Ganpath with Tiger Shroff, Bhediya alongside Varun Dhawan, Bachchan Pandey with Akshay Kumar and Kartik Aaryan’s Shehzada. She will also be seen to feature in Adipurush with Prabhas and Saif Ali Khan.
