Former Miss World 2017 and rising Bollywood star Manushi Chhillar took to her X profile for a cheeky, relatable post that blends post-packup indulgence with a dash of family guilt. Sharing a picture of her treat — a few Krackel chocolate bars — Manushi wrote: “A little treat post packup, I’ll say it’s well earned…… just glad my dad’s not on Twitter. As a family we always discourage sugar, but when one of us gets caught eating it, we find ways to justify.”
Coming from a family of physicians — her father is a regenerative medicine expert, and her mother a neurochemist — Manushi’s post adds a humorous twist to what is, in her household, probably the ultimate rebellion: eating chocolate. With medical studies constantly linking sugar intake to heart disease, her playful tone makes it clear she’s well aware this treat is a rare slip, not a routine habit.
Her self-aware humor also hints at the constant pressure of discipline and wellness that comes with a family steeped in science — and how even the healthiest families sometimes bond over (or hide) their guilty pleasures.
Professionally, Chhillar continues to build her filmography with serious roles. She was last seen in Tehran, an international espionage thriller co-starring John Abraham, and is gearing up for Maalik, an intense action-drama where she stars opposite Rajkummar Rao. Both films position her as more than just a beauty queen — she’s clearly carving a space in Bollywood as a performer with grit and global appeal.
For now though, Manushi’s chocolate confession may be her most relatable role yet — that of a daughter sneaking sugar and hoping dad doesn’t scroll too far.
