Sonam Kapoor on being trolled for pregnancy photoshoot: I come from a place of extreme privilege

Sonam Kapoor recently embraced motherhood as she welcomed her first child, a baby boy. On 20th August, the actress and her husband Anand Ahuja were blessed with their son.

The diva, time and again treated us with some stunning pictures from her maternity photoshoot. Recently, she even posed in an unbuttoned oversized T-shirt for a magazine cover.

Though Sonam’s fans couldn’t stop drooling over her picture, a section of netizens left no stone unturned to troll her. From calling out her bold photoshoot to bashing her for going seminude, a section of social media users criticized her mercilessly. While a user commented, “Ye nanga photoshoot krne se kya inka bachha sone ka paida hoga kya?” Another wrote, “Why it is mandatory to be semi-naked for maternity photoshoot?”

In an interview with a leading magazine, the actress opened about being trolled for her pregnancy photoshoot. She said, “I think the one thing I have grown out of is reacting to things I don’t need to react to. Thankfully, a lot of it has come with age, but it’s also because I understand that I live a very charmed life. I come from a place of extreme privilege and I literally have nothing to complain about, so if someone is saying something negative about me from behind a keyboard, it really is none of my business.”

She further said, “If I put out something to celebrate my body and my womanhood today, it shouldn’t come as a surprise. I have always been the kind of person to publicly discuss issues like dark circles, PCOS, weight gain and stretch marks.”

Meanwhile, on the work front, Sonam will be seen next in Blind which will also star Purab Kohli, Vinay Pathak, and Lillete Dubey in supporting roles. It is a remake of the 2011 Korean film of the same name.
