Huma Qureshi Opens Up About Battling Insecurities and Finding Confidence on Double Date with Neha Dhupia and Angad Bedi

Actor Huma Qureshi is set to appear alongside her brother Saqib Saleem on the latest episode of Double Date, hosted by Neha Dhupia and Angad Bedi. In a deeply honest and emotional conversation, Huma opened up about dealing with insecurities, online criticism, and the journey toward self-acceptance.
Speaking candidly on the show, Huma reflected on the phase after her second film when constant comments about her looks and appearance began affecting her deeply. She shared that reading negative remarks from both the media and audiences pushed her into a shell emotionally.

Huma said, “After my second film, I started reading a lot of negative comments about my looks and appearance. It really affected me and I became very withdrawn for a while. I think when you are constantly being judged, it starts impacting your confidence. But over time, I realised I had to cut out the noise and focus on myself. I started meditating, writing about my feelings, journaling, and even taking therapy. Slowly, I became more secure about myself and the way I looked. Today, I can laugh at jokes, even crack jokes about myself, and take things in a much more positive way. I feel far more confident and comfortable in my own skin now.”

The episode also sees Huma and Saqib sharing hilarious sibling stories, personal secrets, and fun moments from their lives, giving viewers an entertaining and heartfelt glimpse into their bond. Double Date streams every Thursday on Neha Dhupia’s YouTube channel.
