Another day, another troll. It almost feels like there’s a certain section of people who just wake up in the morning and look for something to criticise and take offence to. Celebs are the hottest victims of trolling and TBH, it’s just sad how even the smallest things can big such big subjects of offense. The latest topic that irked the trollers was women who flaunt their baby bumps. Yes, you heard that right. And mommy-to-be, Bipasha Basu was targeted too.
Bipasha Basu and her husband Karan Singh Grover are currently experiencing the most beautiful phase of their lives. They announced their pregnancy a few weeks ago after being married for six years. Bipasha posted some super adorbs pictures from a maternity photoshoot where she’s seen proudly flaunting her baby bump. While many congratulated her, there were still a few who had an issue with Bips putting her bump out there. The actress has always been a body-positive person and strongly follows the mantra of loving yourself. She finally spoke up on this issue and we’re in awe of her.
In a recent interview, Bipasha said, “In life, everyone is entitled to an opinion and all opinions are respected. But I’m leading my life. And I will always focus on the 99 percent good rather than 1 percent negativity. That’s the way to move on in life. You can’t be deciding everything that you do or say on the basis of what people want you to do or say. I lived my life like that. I’m a body-positive person. I believe that you have to love the body you live in.”
She added, “My philosophy in life is to love yourself and it’s all around the magic of having this beautiful body as a machine. If you don’t keep this body healthy, you’re not going to lead a happy life. So, a lot of focus is on the body. At this beautiful stage of life when I’m transforming into a mother and my body has changed, I want to celebrate it. I still want to live. I still want to flaunt it. Because this is not going to be there forever. I’d rather focus on the positivity around me and I get a lot of love from fans, media, people from the business, and everyone else. I feel overwhelmed with the love and wishes that have come my way.”
We’re glad our Bips is not letting mere trolls ruin this beautiful journey. She’s always been an absolute boss and we’re sure her child will be blessed with the best! Here’s wishing Bipasha and Karan all the love and happiness.
