    India is Blessed with Plus-Sizes



Indian women had always been blessed with plus sizes, not vertically but horizontally. According to Namita Gokhale, writer, "Big was never out of India, healthy women are associated with fecundity and fertility". Alka Pandey, curator and author of "Indian Erotica" would like to call it a "well endowed" India, "In India, except for the dancing girls who were slim and slight, all women are fat". Look at the Didarganj Yakshi, the epitome of Indian beauty, the Khajuraho sculptures, the Ajanta frescoes, telling about the ethnic beauty of big women of Gupta period.

It is not needed to go back in history, Indian heroines of yesteryears like Vjyanthimala, Mumtaz, Saira Bano, Yogita Bali, Rekha, Leena Chandravarkar, Shridevi to today's heroines like Madhuri Dixit, Rambha, and Shilpa Sirodkar etc. reconfirm India's Big Fix. There may be one reason of that, Indian actors and actresses were not figure conscious till 80's. Pawan Verma, writer diplomat says "The male obsession with plus size has been most consistent in the evolution of mankind".



South Indian B-grade movies or masala movies are very popular allover India. These movies are very famous since 1980s. In earlier days these films used to run in limited cinema halls and in limited areas. But slowly, looking at the huge business made by these movies, producers from allover south India were interested in producing these low budget so called masala movies. Main actresses in the 80's days were Silksmitha, Jayamalini, Jyothi lakshmi,Jaya chitra, Jaya mala etc. But slowly after the growing demand for these movies allover India, the making of these movies reached the peak by 1990s. New actresses were introduced in the masala film market and created revolution.

These new actresses include Shakeela, Reshma, Maria, Unnimary, Prathba, Sindhuja, Babilona, Karthika, Meena, Jayabarathi, Devayani, Gopika, Kavyanjali, Thrisha, Padmapriya, Tara etc. All of these heroines were fat and shapeless but still they were liked by viewers. Among the actresses of Indian B-grade movies, Shakeela, Namitha are very famous and popular in Malayalam and Telgu film industries as well as in the mind of many people outside India. The films of this category are now known as "Shakeela films" in India. The most successful movies at the box office are often remade in other Indian languages. The deluge of "Shakeela films" made on a shoestring budget of Rs. 20-25 lakhs, has ravaged the star system in the South Indian film industry. The reason is simple there are peoples in India who like plus size peoples.

More than 60% of Indian women, especially women of Punjab, Hariyana, Marwar, West Bengal, Kerala and Tamil Nadu are hefty and shapeless. Among these, women of Punjab and Hariyana are tall, fat but well shaped with relatively shaped stomachs, because they work hard in home and outside. Marwari women are flabby and are round shaped. They are vegetarian in general but their food habits include excessive milk and butter related fats. Women of West Bengal always have a bulgy belly in general with height 5 ft in an average. South Indian women, especially women of Kerala and Tamil Nadu are heavy from their lower part.



It is seen that teenage girls in India have quite slim figure but after their marriage, they start to store fat and become bulgy gradually along with increasing age. The reason is that in Indian society, girls are permitted to go anywhere due to their study purpose. So, they remain under some physical as well as mental exercise. They used to go to school, coaching classes, music tuitions or other teaching places to learn something. But as they got married, they generally become stagnant in home and a few women work outside or get permission to work outside. As a matter of fact, they do not undergo any physical work, the result is increasing fatness.

Today, the scenario is changing in all parts of the world including India. Today's women are much more figure conscious and they have started to do regular exercise to maintain their figures. Parents from all around the world should come forward and they should teach their sons or daughters to maintain a regular schedule of exercise along with study. It should be conveyed to all at their adolescence that "health is wealth".

Now, main Indian Hindi film Industry, Bollywood, has totally becomes choosy to select models and heroes. Plus size women now get comedy roles in Bollywood and heroes with paunch are kicked out from the industry. This is not my intention to hurt plus size women of India or other part of the world, there are lovers for plus size women, but one point is clear that the percentage for plus size lovers are much less with respect to slim lovers.

At the top of the page we have discussed about Didarganj Yakshi, the Khajuraho sculptures, the Ajanta frescoes etc. but these sculptures may be big in size but it is to be noticed that all women figures are tremendous shapely with almost hourglass figures, they have well shaped stomach. Sculptures are made to show something with exaggeration so that common people can understand the theme at a glance that does not mean that women of that time were of that shape.
