Kareena Kapoor Getting Body-Shamed For Her Look Shows the Twisted Reality of Social Media

We are a country full of ardent fans, obsessed with our Bollywood celebrities. We follow them on social media, enjoy getting minute-by-minute updates of their daily lives, and jump up instantly at the mere prospect of somehow encountering them! Who'd leave out a chance to brag on social media, after all.

All in good spirit of course, we cherish our stars and await the news of their next milestone. But, an inevitable by-product of fandom is — opinionated haters who are ready to hurl them with uncalled-for insults, getting offended at the blink of an eye!

Whether it was Mahira Khan getting slut-shamed for smoking in public, or wearing a skimpy halter-neck dress, or Kalki Koechlin and Esha Gupta facing the wrath of haters for their skin show, the Internet moral police leaves no stone unturned to lash out at celebs if they ever 'cross a line'.

It just seems that every hater out there jumps up at the opportunity to hurl insults on these celebs, and honestly, it's really pathetic.

Kareena Kapoor recently made a head turning appearance in nothing—but a classic LBD—when she posed with elder sister Karisma Kapoor for the shutterbugs at the party hosted by the Ambanis. Hosted for Natalia Vodianova, model and founder of the Naked Heart Foundation, it was a glamorous event attended by all the who's who of tinsel town.

Celebs shined in all their finery, and obviously, the Kapoor sisters were the hit of the evening. In their co-ordinated one-shoulder dresses, they were literally #SiblingGoals. Unfortunately, as seems to be the norm nowadays, the Internet couldn't help but pass nasty comments on her pictures from the evening, calling out her–wait for it–legs! Kareena was sporting a classy front slit LBD and even though the actor has worked really hard on getting back in shape post-pregnancy, some people just can't resist being extremely critical.

What is the world coming to?
