Addressing comments referring to her as 'mini haathi' or small elephant, the actress said the trolling is like "music to (her) ears".

Debina went on to detail how she finds the fat accumulated in her torso the toughest to get rid of, but she is determined all the same. The actress also shared how she does not prefer to wear loose outfits as they simply camouflage the weight. She would much rather work hard to shed the kilos and confidently don a bikini once again, just like her last trip to the Maldives. 

Debina Bonnerjee-Gurmeet Choudhary commit to their health

Opening up about an average day in her life, the actress revealed just how committed she is to dropping the extra kilos. Gurmeet, who was also present in the vlog, shared how the couple wakes up at 4 am every day to drive to their workout location which is a 20 km drive. Debina clarified that though it is a task, the fresh air in the undisclosed location resets her mind and charges her up to take on the day, especially caring for two newborns.
