‘Yeh Ladki Pagal Hai’ Episode 17: Prajakta Koli Opens Up About Body Positivity And Growing Up “Skinny”
Body positivity is a term that essentially encourages people to love their bodies in the state or shape it is in. However, we usually focus a lot on plus-size people when it comes to body positivity. And bigger people have it hard in our society, which glorifies being thin and skinny. However, we have to take into account that society also glorifies having big breasts and an hourglass figure. So isn’t it fair to extend the same support to smaller or skinny people? In the recent Yeh Ladki Pagal Hai episode, Prajakta Koli opened up about growing up as a “skinny child”.

I feel like we usually fail to see the power of our own thoughts. I personally deal with body dysmorphia and eating disorders. And while I have an amazing set of friends who keep telling me how beautiful I am, it doesn’t matter because I don’t believe I am beautiful. I am not saying society has nothing to do with beauty standards and body image issues. However, while changing the entirety of society might be hard, we can start by changing how we see ourselves in the first place.
