Social media has become an inseparable part of our lives and like everything that technology brings us, it has its own positives and negatives. While it connects people to all the good and interesting things happening around the world, it also opens them up to the negativity some choose to spew. A lot of us have been on the receiving end of this and it is just much worse for celebrities who are constantly in the public eye.

It is quite often that celebrities are trolled for everything from their choice of films, to their looks, to their outfits and some trolls even go as far as demeaning them based on their physicality. But, more often than not, the celebs know how to send these trolls crawling back to their caves. Ileana D’cruz is one actress who has time and again shut down such people who thrive on bringing others down.

In fact, Ileana’s recent Insta Story is proof that we always hold the power over what affects us and it shouldn’t be anyone’s negative thoughts.

Well said, Ileana!

It is so important that we have influential voices like Ileana and many others who speak up about body positivity to remind people that it is only how we perceive ourselves that matters the most. As someone who has struggled with letting everyone else’s opinions about their body bring them down, I can tell that it only ever stops you from seeing what a force of nature you are.

Find the courage to see your beautiful self and all its potential and trust me none of the negativity will matter because it shouldn’t, ever.
