Huma Qureshi on Weight Loss Drugs, Friendships & Surviving Bollywood | Pasandida Ladies Ep1

Описание: If you’re reading this, Hi 👋
This is episode 1 of my new podcast series aka my passion project, Pasandida Ladies! I produced this series with my own paisa so I really hope the risk pays off

For my first episode, I’ve got someone I’ve always liked, actually quite loved, on the couch- Huma Qureshi 😎! I mean what’s not to love? She’s outspoken 🔥carries herself with the confidence of someone who’s comfortable in her skin 😍aura farms like a pro and uses gen z lingo like it’s the most natural thing in the world 🍷
Over the course of 50 mins, she talks about moving from delhi to mumbai (yes, we’ve covered the delhi vs mumbai debate!), fitting into clothes and the film business, the friendships she’s encountered here, and why she believes that whether it’s plastic surgery or weight loss drugs, consenting adults should have the final say! 🤘
BTW Note to self: Never give Huma a bubble gun again! 🛁

About Pasandida Ladies with Janice:
Pasandida Ladies is my video podcast series, a passion project born out of my curiosity about women’s lives and the universal truth- that whether we’re CEOs or home makers, our shared experiences, insecurities, lessons, love and resilience are inherently the same.
Here, I shine a spotlight on women whose journeys move me, whose lives interest me, and with whom I can share a laugh, spill some tea and even shed (quite a few) tears.
This is a space for women, created by women — not just in front of the camera, but behind it too.
Finally, at its core, Pasandida Ladies is my personal love letter to the idea of being a woman, celebrating our collective wins and a reminder that our stories matter.
