Bollywood actress Parineeti Chopra had to paddle through the 'fat' jibes since her debut in 2012 as a lead actress.
After years of body-shaming Parineeti debuted her brand new toned self on social media last week.

Her pictures took Twitter by storm and industry colleagues gushing over her fab look flooded her timeline with much-deserved compliments.
It took her nine months to drop the extra kilos and gain her now-sculpted body.
Soon after she posted photos showing her newly ‘fit self’ off, Parineeti Chopra began trending on Twitter. She wrote, "THIS IS MY BODY and I'm proud of it! Took me 9 months to look this way. But I'm still work in progress!! Will look better with time :)."
The actress revealed the secret behind her transformation in a special photoshoot 'Built That Way' on twitter.
"So here goes!! The most special shoot of my life :) #BuiltThatWay," shared Parineeti.

Her dislike for routine gym sessions lead her to Kalaripayattu, a traditional form of martial arts which originated in south of India, Kerala.
Kalaripayattu may not make one lose weight faster but it promises greater flexibility, fitness and strength.
Parineeti also attended a detox centre to cleanse her body of all toxins in Austria for a week.

She mostly works out with her trainer at home and sometimes books a large, empty dance rehearsal hall. She tries to practice at least four to five times a week, on occasion going five days without a break.
The actress, who once was known for chubby figure and was often advised some weight loss techniques, showed everyone how to do it.

The actress pulled up her socks and determined to lose weight. And with her sheer efforts and hard work, the 'Ishaqzaade' actress has shed oodles of weight and got that oh-so-sexy figure, which now everyone is talking about.
But it wasn't easy for her to reach where she is now. It was her dedication, will power and determination that has brought Chopra here.
