I lost weight as I would hear a lot of comments on 'Bigg Boss' about being fat and was body-shamed - Shehnaaz Gill on being criticized

Shehnaaz Gill made her Bollywood debut with Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan In 2019, while she was a celebrity competitor on Bigg Boss 13, the actor first met the movie's star and producer, Salman Khan. 

Shehnaaz has seen a significant transition since that time, losing weight and changing her wardrobe preferences. After hearing all the criticism she received after her Bigg Boss appearance, the actor admitted that she made a deliberate decision to do this.

Shehnaaz told the news agency Press Trust of India (PTI) on how she worked on improving herself. She said, “I changed myself, worked on myself. When people gave me good advice, I followed it and improved. I lost weight as I would hear a lot of comments on 'Bigg Boss' about being fat and was body-shamed... Then I changed my style as people would think I could only wear salwar-suit. I broke all these preconceived notions and would continue to do so moving forward."
