Huma Qureshi, who is coming up with a film titled, ‘Double XL’, recently opened up about dealing with fat shaming and advocating body positivity in the industry.
Talking about the unrealistic beauty standards, Huma stated the problem is very deeply ingrained in us. We look at women’s bodies and use dismissive words. Body shaming erodes somebody’s confidence. The actress also added that when they make a film about it and use their position as actors to create awareness, they start a healthy conversation. Huma also went on to say that instead of making a documentary, they wanted to make an entertaining film and bring about a change in people’s mindsets.
