I had lost some lame competition in school. I felt I was really ugly when I was a child. I was very tall and lanky." Well, there's no denying in the popular old saying 'Maa sab janti hai'!

In an interview with Pinkvilla, she had reminisced her experience with the ordeal and had said, "I had put on 32 kilos during my pregnancy. Ideally, I thought I'd gain around 15 kilos but I had double that weight. And after delivering Viaan, I put on two more kilos which was ridiculous. I don't know how I did that. So I remember this one incident when I went out with Raj for dinner for the first time after having Viaan. We walked in and there was this group of women at a kitty sitting and smirking at me. I could hear them say, "Is that Shilpa Shetty? She still has weight!" It was absolutely heartless." Well, Shilpa had shut the mouth of her trollers by bouncing back into her fit self in no time!
