Sonam Kapoor reveals feeing traumatized and insecure post pregnancy due to THIS reason

Bollywood diva Sonam Kapoor recently shared her heartfelt journey into motherhood and the challenges she faced post-pregnancy. The actress, who welcomed her son Vayu in August 2022 with husband Anand Ahuja, revealed her struggle with weight gain during her pregnancy.

In a candid conversation on the podcast Fashionably Pernia, Sonam disclosed that she gained 32 kilograms during her pregnancy, which left her feeling insecure about her body. She admitted to feeling traumatized by the drastic changes but emphasized the importance of embracing one's journey at their own pace.

"Being a new mom, you're completely consumed by your baby. Working out and eating right are not your top priorities. It took me a year and a half to gradually shed the excess weight," Sonam expressed.

The actress highlighted the profound transformations that occur after becoming a parent, including shifts in self-perception and relationships. She stressed the significance of self-acceptance and learning to embrace the changes that come with motherhood.

"I've always believed in accepting myself for who I am. It was a journey to accept this new version of myself," Sonam shared, reflecting on her personal struggle.

Sonam Kapoor has been balancing her personal and professional life with finesse. While her last Bollywood theatrical outing was in 2019 with "The Zoya Factor," she made a splash on the OTT platform with "Blind" in July 2023.

Excitingly, Sonam Kapoor teased fans with news of her upcoming project, a film adaptation of Anuja Chauhan's novel "Battle of Bittora." Produced under the banner of Anil Kapoor Films Company, the project has sparked anticipation among cinema enthusiasts.

As Sonam continues to navigate the joys and challenges of motherhood, her journey serves as an inspiration to many.
