Aishwarya Rai Criticized By Media on Her Post-Pregnancy Weight

Talk about the pressure of losing all that pregnancy weight. Bollywood actress, Aishwarya Rai, is being criticized by the media about her weight. It looks like she and Jessica Simpson should have a lot to talk about with regards on how to lose all the baby-weight that they gained during pregnancy. However, Aishwarya Rai gave birth seven months ago to her baby girl and clearly the actress is in no hurry to go back to her sexy form.

It is just normal for a pregnant woman to gain weight but for Aishwarya Rai, media criticisms show that the actress should lose weight because of her celebrity status in the industry. An infamous “YouTube” video goes viral and shows the before and after image of Aishwarya Rai with elephant sounds at the background. "The woman is in the public eye. Her baby is seven months old and she looks like she gave birth yesterday. Sorry, many of us have had kids and worked hard to lose it. Motherhood doesn't give you a license to be overweight," a person commented on the video.

Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai’s husband, is angry over the insensitive statements given by the media about her wife failing to lose pregnancy weight in order to live up the expectations of fans to see the actress back in her sultry and glamorous figure."Yes, she's a public figure, but people forget she's also a woman and now a mother and there's a line that's not to be crossed. I don't talk that way about any woman ever and it's obviously not graceful for anyone to talk about her like that either," Bachchan said. Bachchan was absolutely livid and he opened up to the people about his complete outrage with the media that gave his wife a bad publicity due to her weight issues. He also firmly said that no one has the right to speak about Aishwarya that way. 

Meanwhile, Aishwarya Rai proved that she is still a beautiful person despite the media criticisms about her weight. The actress believes that there is more value to be gained by having inner beauty than physical appearance. The former Miss World could not care less what the world thinks or says about her weight. After all, she chose to be happy and be a doting mother to her daughter. She also feels really thankful to the people who give her unconditional love and support and for all of the blessings that she receives.
