Sonakshi Sinha’s epic response to a troll who called her a buffalo will make you applaud the actress

Sonakshi Sinha’s weight has always been a subject of topic for the actress’ naysayers and has been a bone of contention ever since she made her Bollywood debut in Dabangg opposite Salman Khan. However, the actress is not fazed by the body shaming and trolls that come her way and has managed to take everything in her stride. She lost about 30 kgs before she made her acting debut yet was ridiculed for her weight and incessantly compared to other petite actresses. She was also relegated to second-grade status and was often termed as fit to be a housewife for the kind of roles she did in her early career.

On Arbaaz Khan’s chat show, Sonakshi read out some nasty comments made by trolls. However, she had an epic response for all of them. When she was called, “buffello (sic)” by a troll, she had the best response ever. She said, “B-U-F-F-E-L-L-O. Pehle spelling toh seekh le yaar!" Another troll that advised her to go on a hunger strike so that she can lose weight and get more roles was also expertly shut by the actress. She said, “Isse zyada roles main kar bhi nahi sakti. Sorry! Bohot roles hai, bohot kaam hai mere paas.”

Sonakshi was miffed with the kind of online shaming that people often subject others to on social media. She said, “Earlier, I used to read it and think how do people get themselves to say things like that. Kyunki agar aap kisi ke saamne kuch cheezein nahi bol sakte ho, aapko itni himmat kaise milti hai online bolne ki? Koi aake yeh mujhe saame bol de, main do mukke na de doon usko?"

She went on to add that even though she lost around 30 kgs to make her debut as Rajjo in Dabangg she was still being ridiculed for her weight and body type. She said, “Jab maine Dabangg ki thi, aapne (Arbaaz) mujhe usse pehle dekha hua tha. I was very, very big. I was unhealthy, unfit and I lost 30 kgs to do your film and still people found words to say about me, my shape and how I looked. Tabhi I used to go in the defensive space. Maine itna effort daala hai, I have reduced so much, they have not seen the half of it. They have not seen the effort that has gone in. They have not seen the blood, sweat and tears that have gone in. Still they are talking, so to hell with it. Main jaisi hoon waisi rahungi! Aapko dekhna hai, aap dekho. Aap ko nahi dekhna hai, aap mat dekho.”
