Since Junaid Safdar’s wedding, social media has been flooded with speculation around Punjab's Senior Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb’s transformation.
While some call it a “quick cosmetic fix,” others believe it reflects a long, exhausting journey of weight loss, discipline, and medical support.
In this video, we move beyond assumptions.
We speak to a woman who has gone through a major weight loss and body transformation herself, sharing how physically draining and mentally challenging the process truly is.
We also consult fitness trainers and aesthetic experts to understand: Can such transformations happen naturally? What role does weight loss play? When do aesthetic or cosmetic procedures come into the picture? How can transformations be achieved safely and healthily?
This is not about judging appearances, but it’s about understanding the reality behind viral transformations and the pressure placed on women’s bodies.
