Huma was loved for her voluptuous figure and earthy style in her first movie 'Gangs of Wasseypur'. But she was criticised by some quarters for her weight issues.
"In 'Gangs of Wasseypur' I was the pretty girl, it was glamorous role. In 'Ek Thi Daayan' I was the heroine. I have always been the pretty girl. I think there are people who have a craze about size zero but today we do have heroines who are curvier," Huma said in an interview here.
Huma feels there are so many actresses today who are not size zero but still have a huge fan following. However, if in the near future a role demands for her to transform herself, she is game for it.
The 26-year-old is looking forward to the release of Nikhil Advani's 'D Day'.
In the film, Huma had to perform some heavy duty stunts and it was not only challenging but difficult as well for her to pull it off.
