'Not Funny, Awful': Netizens Lash Out At Paps For Body-Shaming Bharti Singh, Calling Her 'Ubli Hui Madhuri Dixit' (VIDEO)
Comedian Bharti Singh, currently seen as a host on the cooking-based reality show Laughter Chefs season 2, dressed up as Madhuri Dixit from Hum Aapke Hain Koun for the special Bollywood-themed episode.
While posing for the paparazzi on the sets of the show in Mumbai, she was body-shamed by them, with one calling her an 'ubli hui Madhuri Dixit.' Bharti responded to the comment jokingly, but the remark didn't sit well with netizens, who slammed the paparazzi for their insensitive remarks.
When the paps called 'ubli hui Madhuri Dixit,' Bharti asked, "Kisne bola ubli hui Madhuri Dixit? Arey ye dekhiye, uble hue nahi fry kiye hue hain. Bol nahi sakte."

She had told ETimes, "I am happy that I am feeling healthy and fit now. I do not get breathless now and feel lightheaded. My diabetes and asthma are also under control. I do not eat anything from 7 pm to 12 noon. I eat after 12 pm. I have eaten a lot of food for 30-32 years, and after that, I gave time to my body for one year and accepted everything."
