Being size zero is not the only quality that distinguishes a great Hindi cinema heroine, according to Huma Qureshi, who also listed all the other requirements.
Huma Qureshi is one of the few who has defied industry expectations of what a female actor should look like when it comes to body image. The actor has experimented with roles as well as frequently put on weight and altered her appearance for several of her ventures. The actor recently made a playful jab at Bollywood’s preoccupation with size zero, suggesting there was much more to being a Bollywood heroine than that.
In her upcoming comedy film Double XL, Huma Qureshi and Sonakshi Sinha play two plus-sized women who struggle with body image issues and body shaming. The cricketer Shikhar Dhawan makes his maiden cinematic appearance in the Satramm Ramani-directed movie, which also stars Zaheer Iqbal. In recent interviews, Sonakshi and Huma have been promoting the movie.
Huma was recently asked for advice for “ladies who think size zero is the route to enter films” during an interview with Bollywood Hungama. In response, the actor said, “Not at all! If this movie, our professional histories, or those of many other women before or after us are any indication, it is not. You did it through hard effort and skill. There is much more to becoming a Hindi cinema star than simply being size zero.
The size in the US size chart that corresponds to an extra small abroad is referred to as size zero. It often refers to apparel that fits a lady with a waist of 23 inches. In both the West and India, size zero has long been seen as a “requirement” for mainstream female models. The phrase became well-known in India in the 2000s as a result of Kareena Kapoor allegedly achieving size zero and losing weight for her 2008 movie Tashan.
