Swara Bhasker has taken a stand against a news portal that has been body-shaming her. The portal suggested that her weight gain was impacting her career prospects in the film industry. Swara, who recently became a mother, expressed her frustration on Instagram, questioning the relevance of such news and asking for an explanation from those who propagate it.
The article highlighted Swara’s weight gain post-pregnancy and implied that it was the reason behind her supposed lack of work opportunities. Swara responded by sharing a screenshot of the offending tweet and criticized the newspaper for focusing on her physical appearance rather than her professional achievements.
In an interview in 2023, Swara discussed her experience of motherhood and emphasized the importance of embracing diversity in her daughter’s upbringing. She expressed pride in the cultural fusion represented by her daughter’s heritage and highlighted the commonalities between different faiths.
Despite the challenges she faces regarding body image in the industry, Swara Bhasker has built a successful career in Bollywood, with notable roles in films such as “Tanu Weds Manu,” “Raanjhanaa,” and “Veere Di Wedding.” Her recent film, “Sheer Qorma,” was released in August 2023, showcasing her talent and versatility as an actress.
