Huma was loved for her voluptuous figure and earthy style in her first movie &#39;Gangs of Wasseypur&#39;. But she was criticised by some quarters for her weight issues. <img alt="Huma Qureshi in 'D-Day'" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jul/Huma-Qureshi_3.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 333px;" /> Huma Qureshi in &#39;D-Day&#39; &quot;In &#39;Gangs of Wasseypur&#39; I was the pretty girl, it was glamorous role. In &#39;Ek Thi Daayan&#39; 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,&quot; Huma said in an interview. &quot;Either you think of it (weight) as a problem or as an added advantage. I would like to be known for my personality rather than size zero, I am an actress. I don&#39;t want to be a hanger,&quot; she said. 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&#39;s &#39;D Day&#39;. 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. u00a0&quot;More than shooting difficult action sequences, trying to look like a RAW agent, keeping the character in mind, not forgetting the lines etc... There is so much synchronisation that happens when you do action scenes,&quot; she said. &quot;Besides action, there are cars blowing up, gunshots, blast happening in the background and you don&#39;t want to mess it up with (bad) performance... So all that is scary,&quot; she added. The actress has decided that until and unless a very good action film comes her way she will not do one. &#39;D Day&#39; will see Arjun Rampal playing an ex-officer of an Indian Armed Forces unit, Irrfan Khan an undercover RAW official and Huma an explosive expert. While veteran actor Rishi Kapoor plays a negative role. &quot;Rishi Kapoor is my favourite co-star in the film he is fun to work with. He has great anecdotes, he is very inspiring. He is child-like... He is dedicated and passionate about his work,&quot; she said. &quot;Irrfan is a great performer. As a co-star its difficult to know what he will do next as he is full of surprises. Having an actor like Irrfan in the film is like a blessing, he takes it (film) to another level. Arjun is the most good looking and fittest actor we have,&quot; she added. u00a0

Three-film-old Huma Qureshi, who has managed to garner equal adulation and flak for her curves in the size-zero-obsessed industry, prefers to be her pretty self rather than falling for the fad
