There is no bond as strong as mother’s love for her child. Being a mother is like dealing with the fears you didn’t know you had, and learning about strengths you didn’t know existed in you. Recently, Bollywood actress, Neha Dhupia gave birth to her little angel, Mehr, and she is enjoying the new journey of being a mother.

Time and again, Neha has broken stereotypes in her own way and proved that she is a boss lady. Another incident that proved the wit of this strong lady is when she slammed a media report trying to fat shame her saying, ‘shocking weight gain post pregnancy’. The article referred to her recent appearance at a fashion event. Take a look at the article below:

Neha took to Instagram and shared a gorgeous picture of her and along with it wrote, “I don’t owe anyone an explanation because fatshaming like this doesn’t bother me one bit. But I do want to address this as a larger problem because fatshaming needs to stop for EVERYONE not just celebs. As a new mom i want to be fit, healthy and energetic for my daughter. So I work out everyday, sometimes twice a day because for me...’Fitness’ is a priority and not ‘fitting into’ society’s standards regarding looks. And I hope in the future people are kinder to each other while making such vapid and vile comments. To quote @pattonoswalt ... “Be Kind. It’s chaos out there.” Check out the picture below:
Applauding the spirit of the boss lady, many Bollywood stars came forward in support of Neha and against the media report fat shaming her. Neha’ s best friend, Karan Johar took to Twitter and said, “Neha! You are an amazing Woman! You walk so many paths with humour...with intelligence and with abandon! It’s never about losing weight it’s always about gaining perspective! And I hope the woman who wrote this has gained some today....” (Also Read: Fatima Sana Shaikh Reveals That Linkup Rumours With Her 'Mentor', Aamir Khan, Disturbs Her)

Recently, Neha gave us an insight on how her life changed after the arrival of baby Mehr. She revealed that their life has put on a timetable. In an interview with Hindustan Times, the actress said, “Angad has become calmer when it comes to movie ticket bookings. Earlier we would just spontaneously decide and go to the movies. Now it is different. I have told him to tell me one day in advance.” (You May Also Like: 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo' Actress Aashika Bhatia Has Found Love In An Internet Sensation, Pics Inside)
Neha further added, “If he wants us to eat out then I have told him to tell me two days in advance because the kitchen also needs to shut down. When it comes to travelling within the country he has to tell me three weeks in advance and if abroad then at least three months in advance. We have a schedule now that we follow as husband and wife. It's a scheduled love story. We have a particular time in the day slotted just for us. Mehr has put us on a timetable. It is all just so rewarding. It has kept me very busy. It has kept me entertaining.” The new mother also shared about Angad being a hands-on father and helps her by just being around her. She stated, “He is showing full solidarity with diaper changes, tantrums or breastfeeding. He is a pillar but there's not much he can do. We are excited, emotional tired. It's all there.”
In another interview with Bombay Times, Neha talked about the year gone by and the changes that happened in her life. She said, “This year has taught me a lot. When you accomplish so much personally, it changes you professionally as well. At the start of the year, I had not imagined that I’d become a wife and mother. It has all happened so fast; it’s beautiful.” (Don't Miss: Bengali Bride Refuses To Cry, Boldly Says 'Parent's Debt Can Never Be Repayed', Video Going Viral)
Well, the irony of the media report was that it was written by a girl who shamed Neha!
