At 22, Snehal faces body-shaming but refuses to quit acting dream

For 22-year-old Snehal, being seen in public can sometimes mean dealing with stares, questions and cruel comments about her appearance. But behind the physical differences people notice first is a young woman with ambitions that she refuses to give up. Snehal, who shares her journey on Instagram through the account @swaggysnehal, has opened up about growing up with a body that did not develop like others. Born weighing just 1.5 kg and in a breech position, she was “too small, too soon”, as she describes it. Even after doctors carried out numerous tests, she says most results came back normal, leaving her without clear answers about why her body was not growing as expected. Today, she wants people to look beyond her appearance and medical struggles.
