Mumbai, 09 October (H.S.): Actress Katrina Kaif has been facing online trolling over her weight gain following motherhood. Responding to the criticism, she has emphasised that people should never allow others’ opinions to determine their self-worth.

Katrina shared her thoughts on social media commentary and its psychological impact during an interaction with beauty influencers at an event held in the United Kingdom to mark the first anniversary of her beauty brand, Kay Beauty.

The actress said that social media is constantly filled with opinions of all kinds, making it essential for people not to let such comments overshadow their sense of personal worth. She explained that when individuals begin making decisions based on what others think of them, their ability to make choices for themselves can be compromised. According to Katrina, it is crucial to keep one's identity and self-respect separate from other people's remarks and judgments.

Katrina also observed that there are times when the world showers you with praise, while at other times, you must find the strength to encourage yourself.

Following the circulation of a video featuring her remarks, fans took to social media to praise the actress. Many described her views as thoughtful and sensible, expressing their support for her message.

Her remarks are also being viewed as a meaningful message for people who face online criticism. Katrina's central message is that trusting oneself and recognising one's own worth are far more important than allowing other people's opinions to shape one's perception of oneself.
