Double XL Story:
This is the story of Huma Qureshi and Sonakshi Sinha who are overweight or to speak directly, those who are fat. Huma wants to become a sports presenter while Sonakshi is a fashion designer but the biggest problem of both is their weight.
Now how can she be a fat sports presenter with the increased weight, Sonakshi is also finding it difficult to become a fashion designer. In such a situation, both are crying their sorrow and both of them meet and both support each other in making their dreams come true. Then do those dreams come true? How are fat girls’ bodies shamed? This is what is shown in this film.
Acting:
Huma Qureshi and Sonakshi Sinha are the souls of this film and both have done a wonderful job. Both increased their weight by 15 to 20 kg and that is visible. Huma Qureshi has fit into this character in such a way that you forget that she is Huma Qureshi who sets the screen on fire with her style. Sonakshi Sinha has also carried the increased weight with swag.
In many scenes, when both are upset or cry due to their obesity, then many people who are troubled by this thing will be able to relate to them. Overall, both have done wonders in these characters. Zaheer Iqbal has also done a good job. The kind of character he is playing suits him. This is the first Hindi film of South actor Mahat Raghavendra and he looks quite cute. His acting is also good.
The only problem with this film is the story. The heroines gained weight, but if there was a little more weight in the story, then the message that the film wanted to give would have been given well. The film deviates from its point and goes from a different angle. The body-shaming angle doesn’t show as much as you’d expect. If the film could be a little shorter, it would have been more entertaining.
But the biggest feature of this film is that this film raises an important issue. Everyone wants a perfect figure these days. In the age of social media, this worm has bitten everyone more. After watching this film, this worm will calm down a bit, and those people who feel that their increased weight is coming in the way of their success.
This film can be given 1 star extra only because of its topic.
