[Brand Amp] Naman Ahuja, Art historian and Professor at the School of Arts & Aesthetics, Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) emphasises the importance of realising that the image of a perfect body is constantly changing and the perfect body actually came up in so many different forms. He refers to visual evidence throughout the history of Indian art where each age has created its own ideal body type, which was quite unattainable, which was beyond the mundane and every day.
