Shweta Tiwari’s daughter Palak Tiwari talks about beauty standards in the industry, calls them ‘unattainable’

Actor Shweta Tiwari’s daughter Palak Tiwari is a sensation already. The star kid had always managed to mesmerise the audience with her beauty and charm. However, it was her single Bijlee Bijlee that gained her immense love and fame. Even though she is yet to star in a proper show or a movie, Palak recently spoke about the beauty standards in the entertainment industry. Considering that budding actors and stars have to really keep them presentable, Palak calls this ‘unattainable standard of beauty’.

During an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Palak Tiwari said, “People speak so much about how actors need to be presentable, but at the same time, there’s so much contradictory conversation that actors, especially budding actors and actresses are setting an almost unattainable standard of beauty. But I have been noticing, it’s not a standard set by us, but set for us by the audience.”

“If you have these surgeries and all that, they have things to say about it, but if you don’t (get those things done), then you are unadorned, and not ready. So you can never really truly please an audience with how you groom yourself, or not, because they will always portray their insecurities on to you. But grooming in this industry, I think largely means that you feel your best self. No matter how low you are feeling, you have to always appear exuberant about things, and be vivacious, and I think grooming yourself kind of helps you with that. But I think that’s all there’s to it,” Shweta Tiwari’s daughter further explained.

Palak even spoke about body shaming and how people call her skinny. She explained that in India an ideal body type is a size medium but people fat shame a size medium. “When you are too skinny, they have an issue because ‘oh my god, you are such a mass of bones’ but if you are voluptuous if you have some mass to yourself (they say) ‘What is wrong with her? Has she not been dieting?’ It’s the same toxic circle of people never being happy so I don’t think it makes any sense paying heed to that,” she said.
