11 Moments When Plus-Size Customers Spoke Out — and Faced The Internet’s Wrath

Proof that the world is stranger than anyone gives it credit for.

1. Discrimination Within Bollywood

Actress Anjali Anand believes it to be unfair that Bollywood has given her the “plus-size” tag when actors such as Govinda and Rishi Kapoor were never labeled as such. She told Fever FM, “Nobody would call [Govinda] a plus-size actor. Nobody would call Rishi Kapoor a plus size actor. He is an actor. But for a woman, I’m always called Anjali Anand — a plus size actor. I hate talking about it. “We need to normalize it. People ask me why I don’t promote plus-size representation on the internet, and it’s because I don’t want to.” She later went on to describe how society treats women in a harsher light than men.
