Actor Lin Laishram who is also the wife of Randeep Hooda grabbed headlines when she slammed netizens for body-shaming her. She was shocked and disheartened to see women making fun of her overweight. Now, in a recent interview, Lin revealed that she is suffering from body dysmorphia and things have been adding up due to her age.
Lin Laishram spoke about her condition
Talking about the recent incident, Lin told HT, “It was not the first time I faced body shaming from trolls. The comments have been a constant issue, and I wouldn’t stay silent. I’ve tried to respond kindly, explaining that everyone is different, and some people are naturally skinny. I’ve struggled with body dysmorphia for a long time, and now that I’m older, there are additional challenges as well.“
She reacted to the comments where women were criticising her weight issue. “It was shocking to see the number of comments from women telling me to lose weight. For instance, at a big celebrity bash earlier this year, a seasoned actor asked me, ‘Why don’t you workout’? Over the years, I’ve noticed that the majority of such comments come from women,” she added.
Lin says her weight issues are none of anyone’s business
“I have worked out all my life, I was a sportsperson. When you get comments like that… it’s unnecessary pressure on somebody. It’s none of your business to tell someone to exercise, or troll or make fun of how they look. They say ‘you are a part of the celebrity gang’, but each one of us is also a part of the society; human emotions don’t fade away. ” The wife of Randeep Hooda said.
