Size Zero v/s Six Pack Abs Technology made everything so advance and easily accessible that now physical workout of people is almost negligible. Like right now, I’m typing this article on my laptop…if I was back in the 19th or 20th century, I had to use pen and paper, and write this piece again and again to be good enough to reach all of you! And in that process, maybe I had burned some MORE calories too! People now specially join morning Yoga classes, gymnasiums, Aerobics, fitness centers to stay healthy. These are now one of the most flourishing businesses as people are tired enough to look after their own bodies. Everyone needs some advice, girls have set up their minds that they are not fit if they don’t have a size zero, and guys think only six or eight pack abs can give them total fitness, so they blindly follow their gymnasium instructors and eat protein supplements for months in order to get a cinematic physique but the quality of their health and their body organs decay subsequently! They become less immune and some fall sick often! Nowadays, girls love to fall sick; why? Because it helps them reduce weight faster than any other thing. Some prefer doing karwa-chauth fast on a weekly basis for any random guy or animal or bird for quick weight-loss! While some rely upon only fruits and water and no real food just to burn more calories! And some join gymnasiums for maximum time possible and workout specifically for SIZE ZERO and to gain a belly like ARABIAN BELLY-DANCERS! Gone are the days when actresses like Madhuri Dixit, Sridevi, Karisma Kapoor-who had good figures-(but they didn’t looked skinny and malnutrition!)-were admired and their looks were much appreciated. But now it’s the season of Kareena Kapoor (the goddess of SIZE-ZERO), Anushka Sharma, Priyanka Chopra, Mugdha Godse and more skinny heroines who are inspiration for most of the fat…oops, chubby looking cute girls J to get slim and sleek figure like them! I’ve literally seen some girls worshipping Kareena and Priyanka-with a big paneer salsa wrap of McDonalds in their hands-for a good figure as if they will fly to them and bless them with SIZE ZERO and take all their fat away-and the salsa wrap too! Girls go to their gym instructors and ask them, “Sir, I want a figure exactly like Priyanka in Fashion…okay…E.X.A.C.T.L.Y.! Or, Kareena in Tashan…dono mein se koi bhi chalega Sir…bas SIZE ZERO bana do mujhe S.I.R…” If girls are worshipping Kareena and Priyanka then guys are also admiring Salman Khan from decades! Hostel boys have pasted Salman Khan-shirtless and flaunting his flawless body-posters on the walls of their rooms. Shahrukh Khan’s dard-e-disco in his movie Om Shanti Om literally caused an inevitable DARD in the young generation for six-pack abs, then John Abraham and Hrithik Roshan added fuel to fire with their perfect bodies being flaunted in movies like Dhoom and Dhoom-2! Guys were heard talking, “yaar, Hrithik ne toh Dhoom: 2 mein aag laga di, saala kya body hai”. While girls went gaga over their perfectly toned bodies, guys envied them. Gyms and fitness centers saw a flood of youth craving for good figures and six-packs! Gyms were full of girls and guys willing to put their all efforts to become Kareena and Hrithik! Protein supplements were sold like hot-cakes and aerobics became the coolest sport! Some really fat ‘babes’ with ‘size buffalo’ were seen jogging in neighborhood parks and could be spotted ‘trying to move their big tummies on the beats of Arabian music in aerobics class’! Nowadays, nobody is satisfied with what they have. People go for plastic surgeries to change their natural features, which is just like losing your own identity! We should not criticize what we have, but must be thankful for everything we have! Our efforts should be on maintaining what we have instead of transforming it into something that deprives us of our own individuality! Everyone is beautiful; the only difference is of carrying ourselves out. Confidence defines a personality and not a zero figure or a six pack! A size zero girl would look skeletal if she doesn’t know how to walk and the guy with six-pack will look an ‘oldie’ if he doesn’t walks uprightly! So…don’t follow bollywood divas blindly, learn to love your bodies. You are beautiful/handsome the way you are, you are unique, you are ONE! Eat healthy, stay healthy, live healthy…one life!
