Anjali Anand: ‘This girl can take a hundred off her chin and still stand’: ‘Dhamaal 4’ actress Anjali Anand refuses to let internet trolls shame her and how ‘people still see her weight before work’ | Hindi Movie News
Anjali Anand he doesn’t know how to navigate the internet, but before the release of ‘Dhamaal 4’, he is speaking straight. In a recent interview, the actor spoke candidly about the stigma he faces, how women are used in Bollywood and why he refuses to let the noise affect him.
Anjali Anand explores how ‘people still see my weight before I start my career’
In an interview with India Today, the ‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’ actor opened up about how discussions about female actors continue to fixate on their weight instead of their talent.“Yes, and I think this is still happening because people are still showing that. Society still believes, and still sees my weight first before I start my work. So jab tak woh hota rahega, tab tak main yeh kaam karti rahungi (as long as this continues to happen, I will continue to do this work) to prove that it is wrong,” said Anjali.Anjali believes that the industry needs to do more to create better roles for women who don’t match the usual heroine stereotype.“There is a long way to write good roles for women. This is what I am trying to do. When many people see me, their minds will open. They will begin to believe that they can write something good for this artist, because of this work – something that uses his skills and not his body,” said the artist of ‘Bell Bottom’.Signing ‘Dhamaal 4’ itself, he admitted that he came with an emotional weight because of the story of the film, “It’s a big mess because it’s a big responsibility if you take on something so difficult, something that you stand for all the time.He said: “But then I thought that this is still happening among people, and we are only showing people what is real. And if they are offended by this, then they are doing this too. “The actor also said that judging based on public appearance goes beyond weight.“It’s not just about fat shaming. People shame others because they’re thin, because of their skin color, because they don’t have hair, how they look, what they wear, what they wear – whatever. The day that stops, which honestly can’t happen, what we can do is give these stories a different perspective and show people what’s possible.”Considering women in most Hindi films, Anjali has seen a slow but real change.“Things are slowly changing. Earlier, characters like Miss Mimi were only shown eating burgers, or Sweetu was reduced to double chocolate frappuccino and muffins. There was no standing for those characters. But with Sweetu, things started to change. Then Gayathri came to Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, who stood up for herself.”He added: “Women today have an organization. There is a group that stands behind them. They have been given a place, and they have that place. It is a slow process because there are many people in this country and the world, but the change will come to everyone in the end.”
Anjali Anand opens up about ‘Dhamaal 4’ trailer response
Responding to the response to the trailer of ‘Dhamaal 4’, Anjali admitted that she feels tired, though she is fine.“Everything makes me angry, I just hope that everyone will like the film and things will go well.” I can only hope that I will get many beautiful parts from this. And yeh jo bhi noise ho rahi hai mere baare mein (every noise that is heard about me), it is only good and it suits me well,” he said.
Anjali Anand starts walking
Talking about the internet frenzy that took place after the promotion of the film, Anjali said that the group had already planned to watch it.We knew that the stampede would happen, we were prepared, so we didn’t think it was too important. The more attention you give, the more trolls grow. If you don’t agree, that’s the way life is. Some people are oppressed, some can, some can’t. We are just showing the reality of the person who is going through it. “When asked as a co-star Ajay Devgn or the director tried to help her with the problems she faced, Anjali laughed bravely.“Because I don’t look like someone who needs to be talked into it, you know. They know this girl can take a hundred on her chin and still stand.”
