Ektaa Kapoor Sarcastically Says ‘Ozempic Ho Jaye’ While Discussing Weight Gain: ‘Hum Bade Hi Achhe Lagte Hain’
Ektaa Kapoor shared a video on Instagram, in which she urged people to normalize curves, and talked about the need for better representation of women in films and shows.

Ektaa Kapoor, who is currently in Chennai, shared a video on Instagram, in which she discussed weight gain, and representation of women in films and shows. In the first video, she said that she has gained some weight, and sarcastically listed options that she could try- anti-inflammatory diet, taking weight loss medications like Mounjaro and Ozempic, or even resorting to simply ‘zipping her mouth’ to avoid overeating. She then said that she could simply embrace her appearance and accept herself, instead of resorting to these options. In another video, she talked about the need for better representation of women over 30, and urged people to normalize curves, pointing out that having a little extra weight is completely normal.
Ektaa Kapoor captioned the first video, “Ozempic ho jaye," and in the video, she is heard saying, “I am in Chennai, I have some time so thought of making this post. What do I do? I have gained a lot of weight. Should I do an anti-inflammatory diet, Mounjaro, Ozempic. All of the above? Zip my mouth? Ya chhod du? Hum bade hi achche lagte hain?" In another video, Ekta Kapoor said that she was talking to an actor for a new franchise of hers, and was telling her that she needs to gain weight.

“Because thoda sa toh representation chahiye. For women above 30 jinke metabolism pe hamla ho raha hai age ka, hormones ka. Uska representation toh chahiye. (Because there needs to be some representation for women over 30 whose metabolism is affected by age and hormones. That representation is needed)," she said. She further added that one needs to be healthy, and in no way is she trying to suggest that one needs to be fat.
“This is in a way saying that if you have a little bit of extra weight and you are crossing a certain age as a woman. Sometimes after 25, and you’re working or taking care of your kids. You are exercising, but not losing weight as fast as you used to earlier. It could be your metabolism, inflammation. It needs to be represented," she said. “Let’s normalise. Curves !!!! #chennaimusings," she wrote, while posting the video.
