Stop calling me plastic: Mathira stands up to people body-shaming her

After an honest conversation on equal rights, friendships and struggles in the industry on Tabish Hashmi's To Be Honest, Mathira has become the victim of body-shamers.

Taking to social media, she asked the public to stop shaming her for what seems like the liberal use of Instagram filters and putting on weight.

"I'm chubby and I'm happy like this. Who are you to shame me? Focus on yourself please," she posted on Instagram, following stories of herself on set.

She then added that she was done with the public constantly asking questions about her body and shaming her for the way she looked.

"I'm so tired of people saying why I have done implants and all... Seriously it's a shame. I have hormonal imbalances issue. Stop it."

The host then said if she were ever to get a surgery, she wouldn't deny it.

"If I get surgeries, I will certainly own up to it. I have put on weight. Please stop this nonsense of calling me plastic," she added.

Surgeries or no surgeries, overweight or underweight — here is a friendly reminder that women's bodies are not meant for you to comment on. Whether Mathira has had 40 surgeries or none at all, her appearance is none of our business.
