In a recent interview with a fashion magazine, she said that she was always an overweight child. She added that she used to be 95 kilos in school. People bullied her, and the boys called her names. However, she did not let the criticism about her weight get to her, even when she was younger. She mentioned that she has always known there’s much more to her than her weight or her size.

However, she mentioned that people were still talking about how much she weighed and how she looked!

Eventually, she told herself that she wouldn’t let them bring her down because those people had no idea what she had been through and how hard she had worked to get here. Sonakshi Sinha said that in the end that it really didn’t matter what was people's opinion. They were not the ones in a big-ticket Bollywood film, she was.
