Swara Bhasker Slams Food Blogger for Postpartum Body Shaming, Says ‘You Chose to Shame a Breastfeeding…’

Swara Bhasker is known for being one of the most outspoken actors in the Bollywood industry. The Veere Di Wedding actor has always been clear with her thoughts and words. Recently, Swara became the talk of the town when she once again criticized food blogger Nalini Unagar over her ‘body shaming’ and ‘vegetarianism’ post. The duo had an argument on X (formerly known as Twitter), to which Nalini shared a long note clarifying her earlier tweets, and Swara has reacted.

Nalini took to X and wrote, “I was doing well, but you got in my way by spreading hatred on my vegetarian post. I regularly promote vegetarianism, and that post was just part of it. Your response turned it into a communal issue, which is why I didn’t respond that day. Your food choices are your own, and I have no issue with that. However, I am free to express and promote vegetarianism. Yes, I am vegetarian and understand that dairy can be cruel in some way. I will be more proud when I become vegan.”

She added, “You turned my post into a communal issue. You have a huge fan base, so please think twice before making such comments. Your words can impact society and cause significant trouble for people like me. I accept my mistake by posting your photos and will delete them soon. DARO MAT (Don’t be scared) accept your mistakes and delete hate against me. Have a beautiful morning. Enjoy your breakfast.”

Swara’s Response to Nalini

When the matter came to Swara’s knowledge, the actor also took to X and responded by saying, “Let’s get into this! You got upset that I called out your veg-supremacy post – clearly intended to target Muslims on Bakr-Eid. Ok. But instead of engaging with me on vegetarianism you chose to shame a breastfeeding mother of an infant for putting on weight?? You are a nutritionist?”

When Did This Spat Begin?

The argument began a few days ago when Nalini posted a photo of her vegetarian meal on X, writing, “I’m proud to be a vegetarian. My plate is free from tears, cruelty, and guilt.”

Responding to it, Swara wrote, “Honestly… I don’t understand this smug self-righteousness of vegetarians. Your entire diet is made up of denying the calf its mother’s milk, forcibly impregnating cows, then separating them from their babies & stealing their milk. You eat root vegetables? That kills the whole plant! Please relax with the virtue signaling just because it’s Bakr Eid! (Folded hands emojis).
