"For a while I thought I am seeing Mallika Sherawat in the pic, and then has to double check myself. Awesome writing.. you made my day. Love you," one user wrote in the comments. The other said, "Oh god, I thought you have put Mallika Sherawat’s photo."
Sameera in her note said, "Can you see the cellulite? The pimples? The loose skin on my belly? The real jawline? The real waist? Which part of my body is not touched up? Answer - Every part of it was cleaned, pulled in, tweaked, slimmed down in 2010. I wish I had the original untouched picture to compare. Throwback." She signed off her post saying that it took her a little time to accept her body the way it is. "A reminder that it took me a while to realise I need to love my body exactly the way it is and no one can make you feel that comfort. Except you!" [sic]
