Actor Patralekhaa has strongly responded to body-shaming comments that surfaced after her recent appearance at a screening of Toaster.

Patralekhaa slams body shaming after Toaster screening; says “I even have just given birth”
Patralekhaa recently starred in Phule, where she essayed the role of Savitribai Phule. Her performance earned appreciation from critics and audiences alike, with the actress also receiving multiple accolades for the role. Alongside her acting commitments, she has also stepped into production. Her banner recently made its debut with Toaster, which released on Netflix and has been garnering positive responses.
Nonetheless, during a recent public appearance linked to the film, some web pages focused on her body somewhat than her work, prompting the actress to issue a candid response on Instagram Stories. Addressing the trolling directly, Patralekhaa wrote, “Pap pages! What’s happened to me!? is that I even have just given birth! Yes I even have gained the burden, which looks like an unnatural phenomenon to you all. I even have not sat and eaten a mountain, I just delivered a baby and produced two movies concurrently which usually are not easy jobs. If I could I’d not be this fashion. But that is how my body has reacted to pregnancy. For God’s sake please learn to be a bit of kind.”
Her statement quickly drew attention online, with many users praising her honesty and calling for greater sensitivity around postpartum changes and ladies’s health. The actress’ message also highlighted the pressure public figures often face regarding appearance, particularly after childbirth.
Patralekhaa and actor Rajkummar Rao, who were together for over a decade before marriage, tied the knot on November 15, 2021, in an intimate ceremony at The Oberoi Sukhvilas Spa Resort in Chandigarh. In July 2025, the couple announced they were expecting their first child through a joint social media post that read, “Baby on the way in which.”
Later that 12 months, on their fourth wedding anniversary, November 15, 2025, the couple welcomed their daughter. They subsequently revealed her name as Parvati Paul Rao and shared their joy with fans and well-wishers.
Patralekhaa’s recent note has reignited a very important conversation around unrealistic beauty standards and the scrutiny women often face after pregnancy. By speaking openly about her own experience, the actress has once more reminded those who recovery after childbirth is deeply personal and deserves empathy somewhat than judgment.
