Katrina Kaif faced heavy trolling on social media after her first major public outing since giving birth in November 2025. The actor attended filmmaker Kuku Kohli's Mumbai funeral on August 26 with husband Vicky Kaushal, and photos from the event prompted users to mock her weight gain and changed appearance. Comments called her "rasgulla" and "a Punjabi bahu," while one user wrote in Hindi that she had completely changed and now looked like an old woman.
The couple welcomed son Vihaan on November 7, 2025, and announced his name in January 2026. Kaif has largely stayed out of public view since becoming a mother. Kuku Kohli died of cardiac arrest on August 25 at age 77. The trolling has drawn no public response from the couple as of now.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The unsolicited scrutiny of postpartum bodies is not new to Indian celebrity culture. The same social media ecosystem that celebrated Katrina Kaif's carefully curated pregnancy announcement now subjects her to body-shaming for gaining weight after childbirth. This double standard mirrors treatment faced by actresses like Aishwarya Rai and Priyanka Chopra in earlier cycles. The trolls' comments carry an additional layer: the idea that a woman who married into a north Indian family and now lives in Mumbai has become unrecognisably 'Indianised', a backhanded compliment wrapped in mockery. Under the Information Technology Act 2021 rules, social media platforms are required to remove content that targets someone on the basis of appearance when complaints are filed. No such action has been reported here, and the couple has not responded to the abuse. The default outcome, absent any legal complaint, is that the narrative remains a gossip-cycle story with no consequences for the harassers.
