In an industry focussed on body image what a female actor ought to look like, Huma Qureshi is one of the few to have bucked the trend. Not only has the actor experimented with roles but often gained weight and looked a certain way for many of her projects. In a recent interview, the actor took a slight dig at the size zero obsession in Bollywood, saying there was much more to being a Bollywood heroine than that. Huma Qureshi’s next film Double XL is a humourous take on body image issues and body shaming, in which Huma and Sonakshi Sinha play two plus-sized women. The film, directed by Satramm Ramani, also stars Zaheer Iqbal and features cricketer Shikhar Dhwan in a cameo in what is his first film appearance. Sonakhi and Huma have been promoting the film in various interviews of late.
