Comedienne Saloni Daini, who is better known as Comedy Circus' Gangubai, has been entertaining the audience since a tender age. While she enjoys a humongous fan following, her experience with some of them has been unkind. Saloni, 19, was ridiculed for her body weight and was fat-shamed by social media users. Giving naysayers a fitting reply, Saloni, during the lockdown, lost 22 kilos, and her transformation made many jaws drop.
Talking to a leading daily about her transformation, Saloni told, "I would get comments like ‘Bhains lag rahi hai’, ‘kitni moti hai’, ‘kitna khayegi, ekdin foot jayegi’ and things like that. I read them with my friends and keep laughing. Sometimes I do feel low, but I move on quickly. I work towards better things in life and not think about such people. Now I have lost 22kgs, during the lockdown."
Shedding light on her journey as the youngest comic star to acting on TV, Saloni said, "When I was in 1st standard, I wasn’t supposed to work and do comedy. But suddenly, Chhote Miyan came up and at that moment. It was very surprising and I realised that this is the thing that I love. This has been the best part in my life and I can never leave it."
She spoke about how fame at a young age made her conscious about her image. "I am that person, who thinks a lot before posting anything. I keep thinking if I look good from this angle or that angle. I also receive a lot of hate comments, comments on my weight, but now I want to change that and not think much while posting on social media," she added.
