Mumbai: Television actress Hina Khan came in support of Ashnoor Kaur, who was body-shamed by Tanya Mittal and Neelam Giri on Bigg Boss 19. However, Hinaโs
post on Instagram faced trolls, despite her reflecting on the mistake she committed while she was a contestant on Bigg Boss 11.
Sharing a video of snippets from the reality show, Hina thanked the host, Salman Khan, for calling out Tanya Mittal and Neelam Giri for passing insensitive comments against 21-year-old contestant Ashnoor Kaur. In the post, the actress wrote, โI waited for this WKV and thatโs why I didnโt express my anger against those hurtful and insensitive things said against Ashnoor, Coz after knowing you for so many years, I knew this Week Justice will be Served by @beingsalmankhan..Thank you Salman for picking this up and handling this sensitive issue with utmost grace and appropriate empathy. You did it.โ

She added, โA 21-year-old girl is being shamed repeatedly for her height, weight, and look on National Television by Another Bunch of Women, who have seen the world way more than her.โ The actress also appreciated Ashnoor for the way she reacted to the comments. She stated, โI am beyond proud of @ashnoorkaur for handling the whole thing with so much poise, sensibility, clarity and maturity. Although she could have made a big issue out of it, she didnโt do Any Drama, no fake tears, no sympathy, no unnecessary poking, or use this as an opportunity to grab cheap attention coz sheโs not desperate..That speaks for her character, values and culture instilled by her parents.โ

Reflecting on her time in Bigg Boss, she stated, โYes, We all make mistakes. I, too, have, but when mistakes are repeated often without remorse, itโs convenience and plain old arrogance. I wish Empathy finds them who disagree and love for all.โ
Meanwhile, many took to the comments section to remind Hina of her actions as a Bigg Boss contestant. One wrote, โYou body shamed Arshi and Shilpa in your season.โ Another wrote, โYou also did the same thing with Shilpa Shinde, then whatโs the difference?โ A third individual commented, โWhat about you calling Shilpa Shinde and Arshi โSAANDโ.โ Another stated, โMake sure you read the comments so you know what you have done in the past.โ
