Once upon a time, actorFardeen Khanwas the chocolate boy of Bollywood that ladies just couldn’t get enough of.But due to certain reasons, Khan decided to move away from the public’s eye and focus on his personal life. This led to the star’s public appearances becoming a precious commodity. In a recent video that has gone viral, Fardeen looks in great shape and his fans took the opportunity to let him know how much they miss him. A few years back, Fardeen had been the subject of vicious trolling and body-shaming because of his heavier physique. But even then theNo Entry actor made it clear that he won’t be shamed into hating himself regardless of the shape he was in. The old tweet reads, “NT ASHAMED NEITHER SHAMED. NT OFFENDED. NT DEPRESSED. NT BLIND EITHER. HAPPY?? LIVING D HAPPIEST CHAPTER THUS FAR. WITH LBS TO SHOW FOR IT.” But now? He looks to be in incredible shape.After his impressive physical transformation, Fardeen looks like he hasn’t aged a minute since we last saw him on the silver screen. In fact, some of his fans took the opportunity to remind him how much he means to them. Here are some of their reactions: “Hey fardeen what happened to you man, stilll I love ❤️ you more then my husband, yaar khush rahaa kar, udaas mat ho tum , love from 🇨🇦😂😂😂😂” “Bhai aap to fardeen Khan jeshe dikh te ho 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂” “You legend you’re back 🙌🙌” “Complete makeover . New Fardeen Khan” “Wow good to see him….always a charming man like father❤️😍🔥” “I was crazy after this actor...loved him😍” “Oh my God... he s back to close old one .. Wow”It’s good to see that Fardeen Khan has been taking good care of his physical health. In the video, he looks like someone who’s been hitting the gym regularly and eating the right things. While he may have cut the excess pounds a few years back, however, credit needs to be given for how he’s still managed to keep himself in great shape. What do you think of Fardeen Khan’s new look?

It’s not that every time I watch a perfectly shaped body covered with even more superbly fitting outfits onscreen, I don’t question my existence. I do. I’ve been conditioned to. © Facebook_Fardeen KhanBut my problems, as they often do, started in 2016 with Fardeen Khan. There he was, living his life as any normal Indian man would, in a comfortable body when trolls decided to attack the extra pounds on his muscles.Cut to 2020, the man is giving interviews about his weight loss journey. For the listeners, yes, it is a weight loss journey. For someone who is answering for letting go of his picture-perfect body, it’s also about mental health, self-esteem and of course, reclaiming the original and much-accepted physical appearance.“I started eating right and healthy, coupled with correct workouts. I have lost 18 kg in the last six months, but 35 per cent journey is yet to go in this aspect. In the work that we do in our industry, you are expected to look your best and you indeed want to look your best,” Fida actor shared in his interview with ETimes.“When I was trolled for my weight, I wasn’t actively part of the film industry. I had been away for years, so I was surprised at the degree and intensity of the reactions. It doesn’t feel good to be in that situation, but you have to find positivity within yourself. Also, you need to be honest with yourself. I was extremely out of shape then,” he sensibly explained. © Instagram/Fardeen F KhanKhan further added how he dealt with the situation at hand, “I found humour in it to whatever extent I could and moved on. I’ve never looked outwards for reassurances and validation. I know my truth and where I stand. I was well equipped to handle the criticism because of my personal attitude. When I posted my response, I saw people identifying with that as well.”It Is As Hard To Be Ken As It Is To Be Barbie © Warner Bros.Since its inception, body shaming, in all its forms—fat shaming, height shamming, genital shaming, shaming of hair and looks, shaming of physical scars or disability—remains damaging. But unfortunately, fewer people are talking about male body shaming than they are about female appearance bullying.Don’t get me wrong here as I advocate a larger body type. Everyone in their right mind would support a healthy body. © Dharma ProductionsWhat body shaming does is pierce through a person’s physicality only to enter their mind. It breaks the spirit of a man already dealing with a level ten of tough body type and emotional stress.We may commend Hrithik Roshan’s Greek God bod but there’s no way we will ever understand the range of struggle Arjun Kapoor, Varun Dhawan or Roshan himself has to put every single day to have a crack at physic that can please the world.Male Body Shaming In Bollywood © Instagram/Arjun KapoorSalman Khan knew that Sonakshi Sinha, Arjun Kapoor or Sonam Kapoor Ahuja wouldn’t be able to compete with stars in Bollywood at their then weight. So he advised, rather helped them shed it.We see their gorgeous, healthy physic now and it would only be fair to say, we’re inspired. But what we don’t see or get to know about is all the times they were shamed for looking a little extra bulky since then. © Instagram/Arjun KapoorIn one of his interviews with Koimoi, Arjun Kapoor said, “See somebody has an issue with how broad structured I am, I can’t cut my arm off na? And if somebody today does not know what I am dealing with in my life, with the health issue or all that’s going on in my personal space, where it might have reflected a bit in my life. I might have not looked the way they expect me to look, as long as it is not hindering the way I connect with the on-screen, I cannot take it seriously beyond a point.” © Instagram/Neha Dhupia“But I do want to address this as a larger problem because fat-shaming needs to stop for everyone, not just celebrities,” Neha Dhupia who has spoken about her insecurities on a couple of platforms said in one of her statements. © Instagram/Sonakshi SinhaSonakshi Sinha wrote in one of her Instagram captions while addressing body-shaming trolls, “For years I’ve been trolled because of my weight. I’ve never felt the need to react because I always believed I was #BiggerThanThem... pun intended.” © NetflixMuch recently, Harman Baweja too fell prey to body-shaming trolls which automatically dialled down after his work in Scoop took off.Uday Chopra has been through the drill quite a few times now. He, however, has always chosen the witty road to deal with the shamers.In IPL 2023, Rohit Sharma was trolled for his beer belly after seeing his performance in the series.Comedian Tanmay Bhat has been down this road plenty of times and his replies to trolls have often come in the form of sarcasm, wit and interviews with straightforward, practical advice.That’s the criticism coming from the outside. The worst is the one that reaches from the inside of the industry. Despite having stunning personalities, young actors are rejected for looking “too fat” when they aren’t by the standards of an average human being. They’re asked to have surgeries that will benefit their health in no way. It’s a rare scenario where exceptionally talented actors like Govinda, Pankaj Tripathi, Arshad Warsi and Paresh Rawal get the lead roles. Male Body Shaming In Hollywood © Paramount PicturesHollywood too, is notorious when it comes to having unrealistic expectations from the bodies of its lead stars. Mercifully, a lot of woke actors prefer to call out the film industry’s beauty standards over struggling for six-pack abs at the age of 57.Zac Efron impressed not just Hollywood but the world with his Baywatch abs. Later when he was trolled for losing the physique, the 17 Again actor told Men’s Health that he no longer wants to look like that and doubts if it was “really attainable.” © Instagram/Zac EfronHe said, “There’s just too little water in the skin...And that required Lasix, powerful diuretics, to achieve. So I don’t need to do that. I much prefer to have an extra, you know, 2 to 3 per cent body fat.”Highlighting the way this process impacted his mental health, Efron said, “I started to develop insomnia, and I fell into a pretty bad depression, for a long time. Something about that experience burned me out. I had a really hard time recentering. Ultimately they chalked it up to taking way too many diuretics for way too long, and it messed something up.” © Instagram/Channing TatumOn The Kelly Clarkson Show, Clarkson showed Channing Tatum a shirtless picture of him from Magic Mike XXL. The actor reacted, “That might be the reason why I didn't want to do a third one, is I have to look like that.”“I don't know how people that work a 9–5 actually stay in shape, because it's my full-time job and I can barely do it...It takes two months to get really lean, but in three days you can lose it,” he added. © Daily MailIn 2014, Leonardo DiCaprio too was heavily body shamed for having a pot belly and love handles when a picture of him living large in Bora Bora, frolicking in the surf and sand with gorgeous gal pal Toni Garrn went viral. © BBCA picture of Vin Diesel that surfaced in 2015 showing his stomach garnered a similar reaction. Diesel responded to it on Good Morning America saying, “I don’t care, really. I’m not trying to be in super shape all of the time. I’m trying to master my craft of making films.” © Instagram/50 CentA lot of people criticised 50 Cent during his surprise appearance during the Super Bowl halftime show. In response to this, the rapper said, “Fat shaming only applies when you’re ashamed of your fat.” © Instagram/The RockEven 51-year-old Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson who has looked nothing but perfect ever since I’ve laid my eyes on him, was asked to lose weight and reduce his time at the gym. He, of course, unapologetically decided to be himself.He told Vanity Fair, “I think in that authenticity moment...a funny thing happened in the world of professional wrestling and a funny thing happened in the world of Hollywood. Both industries conformed to my authenticity and allowed me to be me.”Charlie Pruth shared this tweet after he was body-shamed over a paparazzi picture of him leaving post-swimming. © Instagram/Richard MaddenRichard Madden who has shown an exponential range of emotions and acting skills between Bodygaurd and Citadel refused to film gratuitous nudity scenes when he noticed a very unrealistic body image is being projected.He told Vogue UK, “I find myself with actor friends—after we’ve done a kind of barely eating, working-out-twice-a-day, no-carbing thing for these scenes—looking at each other going: ‘We’re just feeding this same shit that we’re against.’”Justin Baldoni, who leaves no stone unturned in speaking about healthy masculinity, spoke about his experience with body dysmorphia in a Ted Talk. He shared how being shirtless in the film scenes became a part of his identity. “I’d always felt like I had so much more to offer, but that was how I was seen, and that was also how I was making my money,” he added.In his interview with Cosmopolitan, he said, “Because I have my insecurities with my physique, because of my history, I’d put a lot of pressure on myself before I had to do these scenes. So I would get anxiety around it. This last season [of Jane the Virgin], I really didn’t get to work out that much. ... I don't think I personally looked as good as I did in previous seasons, but I think emotionally and mentally, I was a lot happier.” © Instagram/Wentworth MillerOne of Wentworth Miller’s pictures was turned into a body-shaming meme by a British publishing company. The Prison Break actor used it as an opportunity to talk about his mental health.He wrote on Facebook, “In 2010, at the lowest point in my adult life, I was looking everywhere for relief/comfort/distraction. And I turned to food...And I put on weight. Big f—ing deal.”“The first time I saw this meme pop up in my social media feed, I have to admit, it hurt to breathe. But as with everything in life, I get to assign meaning. And the meaning I assign to this/my image is Strength. Healing. Forgiveness. Of myself and others,” he continued. © The Book Of ManBen James, a model and TikTok star told The Book Of Man, “If we take a bigger framed guy and we put him in this ‘plus size’ category—that in itself is detrimental. ... The real progress has to be made by putting those people in the front of house campaigns along with the ‘normal’ guys, the mid range guys."He added, “They should be seen together, bonding together. If we have a plus size campaign and a main range campaign, we don’t connect the dots, we think there’s separate places.” © Instagram/John BoyegaJohn Boyega has been using his production company to create inclusive films with people of all body types. He told Hypebeast, “It's about rebranding the way in which we are fed a false narrative of perfection.” © Instagram/Jacob ElordiThe Kissing Booth star Jacob Elordi called out Hollywood in his Men’s Health interview and said, “You learn quickly that what people take away from those movies is your stature and your figure.”“You have all sorts of aged people around the world only talking about what you look like. ... I don’t think it’s really a conversation that people have in regards to men,” he added. © Instagram/Kumail NajianiAfter his physical transformation, Kumail Najiani opened up about body dysmorphia and told Vulture, “To hear a bunch of people reaffirming my own darkest thoughts about myself was very difficult."He continued, “It’s very easy to get obsessed with that number on the scale. ... It’s a tough thing. It's deceiving. You become obsessed with it. I certainly have, and for me, it’s not great to weigh myself every day.” © Instagram/Jonah Hill New OfficialJonah Hill once took to Instagram to humbly request fans to not comment on his body because “it's not helpful and doesn't feel good.” © Instagram/Jason MamoaJason Momoa was body-shamed for not having abs. As a reply to TMZ’s question about if such comments hurt him, he said, “Not at all...Tell TMZ I'll show you my dad bod soon.” © Instagram/Simu LiuSimu Liu told Men’s Health that after being cast as the lead in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, he was harassed by online trolls who would leave insulting Chinese comments on his page.“I have days where I really feel sexy and on top of the world, and I have days where I don’t. But more than everything, I can be at peace with who I am as a whole — my charisma, my humour, my soul. ... What started to click for me is that I wasn’t chosen [for the role] because of my looks or my martial arts ability or anything other than my ability to inhabit a character,” he added.Ty Pennigton was body shamed after he shared a shirtless dance video on Instagram. His response to this was, “No, I don't have a six pack anymore or a luscious head of hair...but what I do have is wisdom, empathy, life lessons and at 57 years old, I've TRULY never been happier!”“I’m human and I have feelings. Yes, I am older but I think it’s pretty cool...I have wrinkles and sunspots and grey hair but that’s okay,” he continued. © Instagram/Grant GustinGrant Gustin was criticised for appearing “too thin” in a leaked picture of his new The Flash costume. It pissed him off. He said, “I’ve had 20+ years of kids and adults telling me or my parents I was too thin.”“When I had my first shirtless scene in Orange Is the New Black, those same ideas crept into my mind again. I did some unhealthy crash dieting. And now, I look back and I think that's really sad,” said Matt McGorry, who has struggled with body image issues after quitting bodybuilding competitions.Eating Disorders In Men © iStock“If I eat anything other than boiled chicken for a week and skip exercise, thanks to my thyroid problem, I gain all the weight back,” said a Punjabi male friend of mine who religiously works out every day, so much so, that his gym made him an instructor after a few months of training.Anorexia: People with anorexia view themselves as overweight, even when they’re dangerously underweight. They compulsively monitor their body weight and avoid certain foods. © iStockBulimia: People with bulimia eat in unusually large amounts, in a specific period of time. They continue to eat until they’re painfully full and are unable to stop in the middle. They try to compensate for it later by vomiting, fasting, laxatives, diuretics, enemas and excessive exercise.Binge Eating Disorder: It’s a condition similar to bulimia. BED patients typically eat large amounts of food in short periods of time. But they do not use purging behaviour or restrict calories.Pica: People with pica crave non-food substances such as ice, dirt, soil, chalk, soap, paper, hair, cloth, wool, pebbles, laundry detergent or cornstarch.Rumination Disorder: A condition in which a person regurgitates food they have chewed and swallowed, re-chews it and then re-swallows it or spits it out. The disorder may make an adult dangerously underweight. © iStockNight Eating Syndrome: People with this syndrome eat excessively at night, even after awakening from sleep. The condition affects one’s digestive system leading to weight gain.Like any other mental disorder or disease, these are not intentionally adopted by an individual. Such infirmities could simply be the result of a deeper underlying condition that others may or may not fully comprehend.The Solution—Let Them Be © Protozoa PicturesA world so smart and handsome wouldn’t wish to be plagued by obesity. A human too, won’t desire a body that only brings pain, discomfort and insecurity. So why are people still not working harder to rid the weight?Tasty food, unfortunately, is not the right answer. Food does bring a level of satisfaction to an obese individual for like a few minutes. But that’s it. That’s where the role of food ends. Now starts the guilt trips, the pile of traumas, the game of genes, the next level of financial and emotional stress, the work troubles, the emotionally unhealthy environment, the undiagnosed mental health disorder, the brunt of loneliness and the lack of motivation and energy. © Protozoa PicturesAnd guess what, even though it seems like a fit body is the solution to all of it, it’s the other way around.For some people, words of encouragement do the trick but for most, they’re just words and for some, they’re a trigger, the kind that sends them in the opposite direction.The best you can do, especially for an adult, is to let them be. Let them feel that they’re a part of the group. Help them fall in love with themselves. Let them have the time to gather the energy they need to step into the gym or to say yes to a bariatric surgery that’s long due. © Protozoa PicturesI assure you they know that the change is needed. They have the awareness. What they don’t have is the energy.Think of an out-of-shape person as an injured child that’s trying to walk. Every time someone comments on their body, the child falls. He puts all his strength in standing up and walks again. Then, he hears another comment and he falls and eventually breaks. Imagine the amount of energy that this person is giving up while getting up on his feet. And imagine the level of exhaustion when he has to do the same thing over and over again. Final ThoughtsI always got clicked thinking I’m big (physically). Disappointed myself in advance so the results won’t hurt much. Ten years later, I see a perfectly healthy child in those pictures. I have met many with similar experiences.So where did this illusion of being huge come from? Friends? Family? Teachers? Television?All of the above. © Instagram/Fardeen Khan FansBody image is a very tricky topic to talk about. Especially for men. For centuries, body concerns have been in the women’s arena.It’s no surprise that men don’t seem to be talking about how frustrating, rather damaging it is for them when they’re judged for their height, beer belly or penis size down at the pub.Yet, as our understanding of masculinity evolves, there might be scope for more mental health-friendly conversations and a body-positive tone. I won’t deny its difficulty level. But it’s not impossible. There’s no shame in looking like you do right now, just like there’s nothing wrong in being the Ken (Ryan Gosling) of your group as long as you’re the hero of your story. © Reuters; Disney+ Hotstar; Colour Yellow ProductionsI’ve seen Brendan Fraser impressing the world as Charlie in The Whale. Chandrachur Singh as Tej Sareen in Aarya did a splendid job.To my knowledge, R. Madhavan has never disappointed a single soul, be it in the role of Maddy, Farhan or Manu. Proving that potential and personality surpass looks and it’s time everyone—from filmmakers to the folks passing judgements—starts seeing it as it is.
