It's such bullshit, I tell you.
It's a different story that DP's screen presence is so intimidating that she eats up anyone sharing screen with her (not talking about acting, strictly screen presence). It's also amusing how people who jaap about feminism/body positivity otherwise are body shaming DP here when the choreography and the outfits are to blamed. 😆
Its not the height that is a problem, infact DP's biggest strength was her towering presence and that gorgeous face..the problem is she is looking more and more frail and losing her feminine frame (which we have witnessed in Ram Leela and Chennai Express)..something is wrong with her health I feel..her face looks dead and her hair is thinning, her body looks so wooden and like a stick..this is not ageing effect, but probably due to substance abuse.
