Refuting the claims and speculations, Manjima Mohan clearly stated that she could lose weight whenever she wants, as she is actively into fitness, but the reason why she isn’t losing weight is that she is in love with the current state of her body. Reflecting more on how she loves her body and shed some light on body positivity, she said:
"I know that I can lose weight when I want to. I am into fitness and I am happy with myself. When there is a professional commitment which requires me to lose weight, I’ll definitely do it; I’m not sure why it should affect others."

"I told them I'm tired with all the wedding planning and just going to sleep for a week! Gautham and I did the entire wedding ourselves with help from the planners, so it has been exhausting. He is going to complete the next schedule for Pathu Thala. So as of now, it’s home for me and I’m looking forward to decorating the house for Christmas. It’s the favourite time of year for me."

"Unlike other women, I haven’t been dreaming about my wedding for years and planning everything from designer outfits to decor. I told my stylist, Reshma, that I wanted a simple white/beige saree and Gautham opted for a veshti (dhoti) and shirt. We were really happy – I think the occasion was more important than all this."
