She also faced trolls for sharing the photos, to which she reverted back with body positivity messages and looks like she's back with another photo with her bump.

Pregnant women till previous generations were seen hiding their baby bumps with oversized clothes or with a dupatta. But slowly actors normalising the pregnant body in the media and flaunting it in front of the camera has altered the imagery. Kareena Kapoor walked a ramp with her pregnant belly which broke several stereotypes of an expecting mother in the entertainment fraternity. Previously actors left their careers and stayed away from the limelight due to stigma and fear of ruining the memory of their perfect bodies for their fans. Thankfully now the actors can be who they are on social media and share details of their life without worrying about destroying their image.

I have stretch marks all over the body and I feel so embarrassed of myself that I don't know what to do. I can't start working out due to postpartum complications. It has been a rough ride but to see you taking it all so gracefully and positively, is really motivating. Thank you for being such an inspiration".
