Tejasswi Prakash, a popular TV actress, can be seen these days in the reality show Celebrity Master Chef. Because of this, she is in the latest discussions. Her fans are eager to declare her favorite star as the winner of the show. At the same time, Tejasswi is also in the news of marriage to her longtime boyfriend Karan Kundra. The actress has reacted to body shaming in the meantime. She also shared when she was body-shamed.

Reacting to body shaming in a conversation with Humans of Bombay, Tejasswi Prakash said, “I have always been thin and I find it weird when people think it is okay to comment on someone's weight or body. Like people say, you are too thin, or you are healthy now. But if someone is overweight then probably no one will say that.”

Tejaswi further said, “I have a weird body. I have a thin body and a chubby face. People used to get confused about me and used to make comments like 'football face'. Even now I have a chubby face and I don't think I can change it. However, I don't take these comments negatively, rather take them positively and think of making changes in myself. Like increasing protein intake or doing yoga.”
