Birla family - racist family.
I would like to ask you guys one question. Do you people mean to say that the black models/actresses are not popular? Have they not won the beauty contest? If you think like that, take Kajol's example. She is beautiful though she is dark. What you people say for that? Suhani is not bad looking either. So what if she is dark.
The cvs were trying to show the Birla's misconception of beauty.That they are wrong for thinking fair = beautiful. I thought this show was going to be about a darker girls struggle in a country where fair girls are favoured.
I see this from a different point of view though. I'm mixed race. My mother is a dark skinned Goan woman and my father is a very white English man. My white cousins are constantly trying to get tanned, and my Indian aunts are bitching at their girls to stay out of the sun.
I tried asking my cousins about skin colour once, but it seems to be a sensitive subject.
In 2013 an Indian woman won Miss America. And because she was "dark" (she isn't dark), its caused a bit of a stir on twitter, with people pointing out that she wouldn't win beauty pageants in India because she's not fair enough.

The cvs had a chance to show something fresh and they ruined it.
