On November 1, 2019, Sameera took to her Instagram handle and posted a throwback picture from her teenage days. And believe me you, she was just like all of us while growing up. Alongside the gorgeous picture, Sameera wrote a powerful message that can be read as "Blast from my past! For all the meme-makers! Jokes aside I struggled so much with how I was judged then. So much pressure to look good and feel accepted especially as a teen! Even now after two kids and a husband who loves me just the way I am I have many moments of anxiety and struggle with how I feel about my body."
Sameera keeps on sharing her thoughts on her Instagram handle. We remembering during her second pregnancy, Sameera had opened up on her weight gain during her first kid, Hans' birth. In her long post, she had written that she had almost touched 102 kilos and it became the reason behind her depression. Her confidence was shattered and it added on to her stress level because of which she couldn't lose weight for a year. And that became the reason of her disappearing from the world of glam and glitz as she didn't want anyone to judge her.

In an interview with SpotboyE, Sameera had talked about her second pregnancy and had said, "I enjoyed my second pregnancy. I frequently sent out messages that the bump is not ugly but something that all pregnant ladies need to be proud of. I had even shot a video Imperfectly Perfect in this regard and got a terrific response from women and even those who were not pregnant. There is so much shaming of every kind going out there. Everybody is just out to harm each other even otherwise and sadly not doing anything constructive either. There is a lot of viciousness all around us in every strata and sphere of life. It's all coming out so starkly. It's all coming out to exhibit that people have become so spiteful and scheming. It's shameful. We need to end it ASAP."
