Tejasswi Prakash, who emerged as the winner of Bigg Boss 15 and currently seen in Ekta Kapoor‘s Naagin 6, is winning everyone’s hearts with her amazing personality and work. Tejasswi is indeed in the best phase of her career and in her personal life too. She is quite happy about her relationship with Karan Kundrra and the duo is grabbing lot of attention with their chemistry. But, before making big in the industry, Tejasswi had her fair share of struggles and rejections.
In a recent interview with ETimes TV, Tejasswi recalled being body shamed because of ‘being too slim’. Speaking about it, the Swaragini actress explained that body-shaming is not just restricted to people who are overweight, but it also happens with underweight people. She revealed, “This body shaming doesn’t only happen with people who are overweight. It happens with people who are thin. I was also receiving negative comments because I was underweight. In life when you become an actor and you have money, you get tempted to work on your body, many times you get suggestions that do this to your body or do that. Do external surgeries or corrections to look perfect.”
She added, “To be honest I feel that is an easy way out. You just spend money and get the flaws which might be on your face, body or wherever and then just maintain it. Not like I am judging anyone who does it but I feel it is an easier way out. I’ve always been a woman who has been extremely proud of how my body is or the way I was made by god.”

She further adds, “That’s how he wanted me to be. If people don’t like it I can’t help it, it is not in my hands to go and correct these things. Because it is very important for women to love themselves. If you don’t love yourself and the way your body is and you keep doing things to yourself, then how do you expect anybody else to love you. So I am of the opinion that I extremely love myself. I am very confident that this is the way I am. If someone tries to shame me, my body is not going to affect me. Because I know who and what I am. It doesn’t affect me and I don’t think it will ever”
