Real Women Have Real Bodies: Pooja Bhatt

Darpan News Desk IANS, 24 Apr, 2018 01:38 PM
  • Real Women Have Real Bodies: Pooja Bhatt
Actress-filmmaker Pooja Bhatt says real women have real bodies and they must celebrate themselves as they are.
 
 
Pooja re-tweeted a post by a nutritionist who wrote to the Union Minister of State for Health and Family Anupriya Patel, commenting on a campaign which was for promoting healthy, nutritious eating, which received a backlash on social media. 
 
 
The campaign's image showed the outlines of two different women, with different body sizes. While one was visibly larger, curvier contained eggs, meat, bread, burgers, doughnuts, fries and fizzy drinks and beer, the other was lean and contained only fruits and vegetables.
 
 
The accompanying message read: "What is your choice?"
 
 
The nutritionist asked: "Did the government really make this body shaming ad? Women can eat healthy but have hormonal issues due to which they have excess weight as well. Highly insensitive campaign!"
 
 
Pooja reacted saying: "I second that. Thin is not necessarily healthy or fit and someone who has a larger frame or is supposedly overweight by the standards of the world is not necessarily unhealthy. Real women have real bodies and must celebrate their bodies in whatever shape or size!"
