There’s just something about witnessing someone famous struggle that is oddly satisfying. In the case of Boney Kapoor’s daughter Anshula, the celebrity is second-hand, but her tussle with body positivity detractors has always been at the forefront. Recently, the star child showed off her progress, admitting that she’s been working on her fit frame for more than two years. Image Credit: Insta/

Alongside the fat-burning keto diet, Johar worked hard in a gym to shed the weight; he dropped 17kg in four months. Image Credit: Insta/ kunalgir
