Supriya Shukla to Zara Noor Abbas

The Pakistani actress Zara Noor Abbas, who has been winning millions of hearts with her beauty, took to Instagram yesterday and posted a message for all those who indulge in body shaming.

The actress shared a collage of her original picture and photoshopped pictures where she said that the actress has been called ‘too big’ for people.


Zara Noor Abbas & Husband’s Candid Picture Ignites Social Media Wrath!

She wrote:

For the longest time, I have heard people telling me that I am ‘ too broad ‘ or ‘ too big’. I was told: Sizes 4 and 6 SHOULD be my friends! I should go through body transforming surgery. A very prestigious brand didn’t want to work with me because I was not ‘petite’.

She added that all the means comments made her stopped liking her own self and she even started to question her existence.

This disturbed me a lot on different levels but one level so loathing that I stopped liking myself wearing anything. I began to question if it was all about how I looked and not about who I am at heart or if i am talented or not. If I’d have carbs at dinner, I’d cry. If i’d have some chips to eat, people would tell to get rid of them because actresses and models dont eat. They have to look desirable. And ONLY skinny is desriable. If I had desserts, I’d hate myself later on and create an energy so negative that it effected me mentally.

At the end of the post, she said that she will never change herself for what people think she should be.

I am a curvy woman. And I love myself. Take me as who I am or else don’t bother at all. I will never change myself for what you think I should be. #ShameonBodyShaming

Left : Photoshoped Right : Original A shoot i did sometime ago. The people involved sent me this picture and i made a collage of it. For the longest time I have heard people telling me that I am ' too broad ' or ' too big ' I was told: Sizes 4 and 6 SHOULD be my friends! I should go through body transforming surgery. A very prestigious brand didn't want to work with me because I was not ' petite ' This disturbed me a lot on different levels but one level so loathing that I stopped liking myself wearing anything. I began to question if it was all about how I looked and not about who I am at heart or if i am talented or not. If I'd have carbs at dinner, I'd cry. If i'd have some chips to eat, people would tell to get rid of them because actresses and models dont eat. They have to look desirable. And ONLY skinny is desriable. If I had desserts, I'd hate myself later on and create an energy so negative that it effected me mentally. Then one fine day, while this was taking a huge toll on me, I looked at myself and told myself what I always believed in. Being who you are. And who am I? I am a curvy woman. And I love myself. Take me as who I am or else don’t bother at all. I will never change myself for what you think I should be. #ShameonBodyShaming
