Sameera Reddy has shared a powerful message about body positivity, urging people to love their bodies regardless of public opinion. Her post comes amid renewed discussion around the way women, particularly new mothers, are scrutinised for their appearance.
Sameera Reddy has spoken about body acceptance with a new Instagram post celebrating different body types and encouraging people not to let outside opinions determine how they feel about themselves.
The actress shared a video featuring words including “plumpy”, “thicc”, “curvy”, “chubby”, “healthy”, “chunky” and “golu”, turning terms that are sometimes used to comment on women’s bodies into a message of self-acceptance.
Alongside the video, Sameera wrote a note addressed to people at different stages of life, including new mothers.
Sameera Reddy Says ‘Your Body Needs You to Love It Back’
In her Instagram caption, Sameera emphasised that a person’s relationship with their own body should not be determined by what others say.
“Whether you are a well-known personality, a young teen finding her way, a new mama, a woman seen year of judgement .. or just a person who needs to hear this – Your body listens and needs you to love it back irrespective of anything anyone has to say,” she wrote.
She concluded the message with words celebrating curves and self-acceptance:
“Curvy – Beautiful- luscious You.”
The video itself featured the words “Words I love being called plumpy thicc curvy chubby healthy chunky golu”, while Sameera appeared confidently embracing her curves in different outfits.
The actress did not mention Katrina Kaif or any other celebrity in the post.
Salman Khan Recently Spoke Against Online Trolling
Sameera’s post arrives amid wider discussion about online trolling of actresses and the scrutiny women can face over their appearance.
During a recent Bigg Boss 20 Weekend Ka Vaar episode, Salman Khan criticised the practice of targeting people over their age, weight, appearance, family, professional setbacks and motherhood.
“Suddenly, everyone starts talking about age, saying someone has gotten old. What do you want to troll someone for? Their weight, their looks, their family, their smile, a career flop or becoming a mother? You are merely revealing your own upbringing,” Salman said.
He also spoke specifically about criticism directed at women during and after pregnancy.
“Yes, I have turned 60, man. Why do you troll a woman who is pregnant? Everyone gains weight during pregnancy… she gained weight because she was pregnant; she will get fit again when she returns to films. She simply wanted to spend time with her family. Don’t troll,” he added.
Salman’s remarks were widely discussed in the context of recent online commentary surrounding Katrina Kaif’s appearance, although his comments as quoted did not identify her by name.
Sameera Reddy’s Message Goes Beyond Celebrity Culture
Sameera’s post similarly places the emphasis on a broader issue rather than a particular celebrity.
By including references to teenagers, new mothers and women who have faced years of judgement, she framed body acceptance as an issue that extends beyond the entertainment industry.
Her message also reflects a recurring theme in her public conversations about body image: rejecting the idea that people need to meet a particular physical standard to feel confident about themselves.
