The concept of body shaming isn't new to us. We live in a society where we are constantly judged, irrespective of whether we are a celebrity or no. Time and again, Bollywood actresses have raised their voice against fat-shaming and the latest one to join the bandwagon is none other than Neha Dhupia.

In an interview with Filmfare recently, Neha revealed that she has been body-shamed in the past too. She happened to be a showstopper for a leading designer for a fashion show and she believed that she looked pretty good walking the ramp in that lehenga. However, a leading publication slammed her saying how she wasn't "the perfect size".

Describing the incident in detail, Neha said, “People need to understand that the new F word is not f**k, its fat. People who troll, aren’t the right body size either. Women kill themselves trying to look a certain way. They don’t have a life left. Internationally, you have women showing off their tyres, their curves and their celluloid, there’s nothing wrong with it. I’ve been a victim of body shaming. I remember wearing this lehenga choli as a showstopper. I believed I was looking damn good. The next day, a leading publication carried a big article on me. My father, on seeing my photo. went on to read it. But it said I was not of the perfect size. It went on to describe 15 horrible things about me. No one deserves to wake up to such stuff. No one has the right to decide what looking great is, what normal is. My advice to people who body shame is #GoF**kYourself. I’m speaking for a section of women who’re fit, who live their lives and who eat well. And for women, who give up chocolates or starve themselves, #GoF**kYourself." Like we told you, Neha isn't the only actress to have raised her voice against body-shaming. In the past, we have seen Sonakshi Sinha, Parineeti Chopra, Vidya Balan and Bhumi Pednekar taking a strong stance on the same.

Further, Neha also commented on actresses who go under the knife to look "better" onscreen. She said, “There’s no need for it (cosmetic surgery). Some of the most beautiful women are the ones, who haven’t gone through it. But if you’re doing it because it makes you feel secure, do it. But why hurt yourself? I’m not the type to do anything like that. The most I do is threading my eyebrows. Recently, I worked with Vidya Balan (Tumhari Sulu), I’m working with Kajol (Eela). Both these women haven’t gone through any of this and they look beautiful. And these are women, who focus on their jobs. (Laughs) You either focus on your job or you focus on the boob job!” Well, she does have a valid point to make. Don't you guys agree?
