Manjima Mohan Opens Up About Being Fat-Shamed At Her Wedding To Gautham Karthik

Actress Manjima Mohan recently married her longtime partner Gautham Karthik, opening a new chapter in her personal life. Some of the comments on their photos as bride and groom included both congratulations and body-shaming for her. Manjima has since admitted in an interview that she was also fat-shamed at her wedding.

People have fat-shamed the actress on social media, and some have even made offensive comments to her in person. She responded when asked if that had an impact on her, "It doesn’t anymore”. Manjima admitted in an interview with India Today that she had suffered fat-shaming at her wedding. She continued, "In fact, even at our wedding, a few people commented about it. Earlier, it used to, but now I am comfortable with my body and I know that I can lose weight when I want to. I am into fitness and I am happy with myself. When there is a professional commitment that requires me to lose weight, I’ll definitely do it; I’m not sure why it should affect others.” On November 28 of this year, Manjima Mohan and Gautham Karthik exchanged wedding vows. The couple has been dating for three years after meeting on the set of their 2019 movie Devarattam. The pair posted their first photo as husband and wife on social media as they began a new chapter in their lives. The actress captioned the image she shared on Instagram, "Now and forever."
