Katrina Kaif has spoken out against body-shaming in the wake of online trolling she faced post-pregnancy. At a London event for her cosmetics brand Kay Beauty, the actress urged people not to let social media comments dictate their self-worth. The backlash followed Katrina's appearance at the Ambani family's Ganesh Chaturthi celebration in Mumbai in September, where comments about her post-pregnancy weight went viral.
After giving birth to her son in November 2025, Katrina received a flood of negative remarks. Though she didn't single out the critics, her message was clear: trying to please everyone only harms self-esteem. Katrina emphasized the importance of being one's own biggest cheerleader, particularly in the face of inevitable highs and lows in life.
She also linked her comments to Kay Beauty's slogan, "It's K to be you," which advocates for accepting oneself as is. Katrina's stance echoes the sentiments expressed by her co-star Salman Khan, who recently criticized online trolls for body-shaming women after childbirth.
