Television host and chef Sruti Nakkhul has often stressed on the importance of healthy body images among pregnant women, often throwing light on topics surrounding pregnancy like trauma, body shaming, freedom of choice, among others. On Wednesday, Sruti opened up about body shaming and her own pregnancy-induced physical transformation.
"Don’t let anyone dull your sparkle ! Remember that beauty is only skin deep ! Spare a little time...Each body , each pregnancy, each child is different.
You should never be comparing yourself or your child with another ! Everyone is a work in progress," Sruti said in the caption. In her post, she had penned a note about how numerous women are shamed by many for their appearance post and pre pregnancy. "It's not easy being a mother. And why do you need to even get rid of the scars? People celebrate the scars you get out of war. Why not out of pregnancy?" she asked in the note.
Actor Nakkhul and Sruti gave birth to their baby girl Akira earlier this year.
