Ayesha Khan, the actress who gained prominence on Bigg Boss 17, recently shared a vulnerable message with her followers on social media. In an Instagram story posted early Sunday morning, Khan confessed, "I feel ugly today". Her message wasn't simply a statement of personal feeling but also an appeal for self-compassion.

Khan elaborated, "I don't know how to express this, but I feel ugly today. I just wanted to write it and let it out". Acknowledging the difficulty of self-love on certain days, she emphasized the importance of being gentle with oneself, "It is hard to love yourself on some days, but if we don't, who else will?". She further urged her followers to treat themselves with the same kindness and tenderness that they would show a child.

Ayesha Khan's message resonates with the universal struggle of grappling with self-image and the importance of practicing self-compassion. Her vulnerability is particularly striking given the pressures of the entertainment industry and the constant scrutiny of social media. By openly admitting to feeling "ugly," she normalizes these emotions and encourages others to do the same.
