Bollywood
oi-Gayatri Adiraju
|
Maharani
actor
Huma
Qureshi
has
added
another
feature
to
her
cap.
The
actor
is
turning
producer
for
her
upcoming
film,
Double
XL,
which
will
also
feature
Sonakishi
Sinha.
The
actress
revealed
that
the
plot
of
the
film
began
as
a
lighthearted
conversation
as
her
fellow
industry
friends
were
complaining
about
their
“post-lockdown
weight.”
Taking
to
her
Instagram
account,
Huma
penned
an
emotional
note
on
how
she
got
the
idea
for
the
film
and
mentioned
that
it
has
been
created
with
“a
lot
of
love”.
“What
started
out
as
a
fun
conversation
with
my
closest
friends
&
family
—
Sonakshi,
Zaheer,
Saqib
and
Mudassar,
literally
in
my
living
room,
has
now
resulted
in
this
film.
All
the
actors
were
lamenting
about
the
‘post
lockdown
weight’
that
we
had
gained
and
Mudassar
spun
a
story
around
it,
impromptu.
This
story
found
more
and
more
friends
in
the
following
months
as
well
as
partners
as
we
chugged
along
on
this
journey.
This
is
a
film
written
and
made
with
a
lot
of
love,”
she
wrote
in
the
social
media
post.
Thanking
everyone
who
joined
the
Double
XL
dream
and
made
it
a
reality,
the
actress
continued,
“We
are
now
releasing
this
film
in
the
THEATRES.
If
someone
had
told
me,
when
I
had
just
arrived
in
Mumbai,
almost
a
decade
ago,
that
I
would
be
instrumental
in
backing
content
which
would
not
only
resonate
with
me
but
also
have
the
potential
to
strike
a
chord
among
many
others,
I
would
not
have
believed
it.
But
then
again,
Dreams
Do
Come
True!”
“And
that
is
what
we
believe
at
Elemen3
–
Saqib,
Mudassar
and
I.
Our
company.
Our
collective
dream.
To
tell
stories
that
travel
beyond
the
ordinary.
The
three
of
us
are
different
as
people
and
yet
are
united
by
our
love
for
cinema.
Our
first
baby
is
ready
to
open
its
eyes
and
go
frolic
in
the
sun,” Huma
added.
Directed
by
Satramm
Ramani,
Double
XL
is
a
humorous
take
on
bodyweight
stereotypes.
The
film
has
been
shot
in
India
and
the
UK,
and
explores
the
lives
of
two
plus-size
women,
who
are
from
Uttar
Pradesh
and
Delhi,
respectively.
The
two
women
in
the
film
transit
through
a
society
that
constantly
associates
a
woman’s
beauty
with
her
size.
The
film
also
stars
Zaheer
Iqbal
and
Mahat
Raghavendra
and
is
produced
by
Bhushan
Kumar
and
Krishan
Kumar,
Vipul
D.
Shah,
Rajesh
Bahl
&
Ashwin
Varde,
Saqib
Saleem,
Huma
Qureshi
and
Mudassar
Aziz.
Double
XL
will
hit
the
theatres
on
October
14.
