😆 but why approach the wrong person for fairness creams? that's very unconvincing and misleading IMO. SRK would be best suited for tanning products for obvious reasons ;)

celebrities should not endorse fairness creams in my opinion. not just for the sake of stereotyping and biases its highly damaging for skin also.

There is no way to eradicate racism or color prejudices cos all of us in this world have varied degree of racist values imbibed in us whether we like to acknowledge it or not.

racism is everywhere Nandita...unfortunately one has no option other than dealing with it.

"You look green!" said a friend. "Are you ill?" asked another. Last year, a respected Indian newspaper published a photograph of me online which had been lightened so drastically by the art director's magic wand that I called the editor to complain and he apologised and replaced it with the original. The art director had thought he was doing me a favour by whitening my skin.

This has happened with some American celebrities as well, a few years ago Beyonce complained that a magazine made her look lighter than she actually is, and before that Nelly Furtado, Mariah Carey, and now Nandita Das.

So I did some research to find the first incident, or earliest incident, of someone dark skinned who was made to look a lot lighter than they actually were, and my efforts led me to this guy...
