Huma… A Vision In White
Khush Wedding|Issue 32
After almost a decade in the movie business, Huma Qureshi remains relentlessly dynamic not just as a trailblazing actor, but as an OTT celebrity and a producer. Navigating the line between accessibility and allure has become her brand. But her ultimate mission: to stir a body positive and selflove revolution.

The faces are symmetrical, the colour flawless, the noses pert, and the bodies reed-thin. Our dolls, Huma Qureshi feels, have served as emblems of unrealistic and even toxic beauty. “They are not reflective of real bodies. The moment our kids look at those silhouettes, they feel something is wrong with them, and that's not a healthy mindset to foster. We need to shift away from these impossibly-articulated, perfect-appearing figurines that distort children's idea of beauty, skin tone and body shape, the actor says to me, elaborating her thoughts on how our dolls need to be as relatable and as diverse as the world we live in.
