Nimrat Kaur shares before-and-after images of her weight transformation for 'Dasvi' penning a hitting note

While playing the role was tough and a challenge in itself, there was another challenge the actor had to face and that was gaining 15 kgs for the character and then of course, losing those kilos as well.

It is amazing how actor Nimrat Kaur is one of the finest actors in our country but she has only been a part of three films so far - those being The Lunchbox, Airlift and the recent Netflix release, Dasvi. The actor has been very thoughtful of the projects she takes up and Dasvi seemed like the perfect film for her to be seen in an Indian film again.

The film, in itself was rather vanilla but Kaur and her character of Vimmo was easily the best thing about the film, which we also mentioned in our review that you can read here.

While playing the role was tough and a challenge in itself, there was another challenge the actor had to face and that was gaining 15 kgs for the character and then of course, losing those kilos as well. Earlier today, Kaur took to social media and shared her before and after pictures with a powerful note.

In her long note, she spoke about the importance of minding our own business. The pictures show her sporting the same outfit. The first picture features her with the extra weight that she put on for the film and the second features her after losing it-

Sharing the pictures with her fans, Nimrat wrote, "Weigh on it… Swipe left for my thousand words this picture won’t speak." A part of her note read, "In the age of heightened expectations regarding what we 'should' look like, at all times --gender, age and profession no bar, I'm sharing a small chapter from my life that brought with it learnings that shall last a lifetime. Bear with me, as unfortunately, there isn't a 'bite sized' version of this 10th month long journey." She concluded her note by asking people to be more mindful, sensitive, and empathetic. She wrote, "Be kind. Be sensitive. Be graceful. Don't make someone's day worse if you can't make it better. Be responsible. Make only your mind and body your business. No one else's."

Needless to say, the post went on to receive unanimous support from several members of the industry and some fans also applauded the actor.
