hey was just looking a RBO diwali IF video page for commenting since swati had asked us to do so for better rankings.
There I was in pain seeing for some minutes a comment by an IF member saying quote
"yukk she is kaali(did not mention name) she needs to put on makeup before wearing the deep blue dress."i was really really feeling bad on reading this .
I am a south indian and most of us are all not very fair complexion and brown skinned or wheatish complexioned..I have never felt or longed for fair complexion.
Infact majority of all indians are brown or black skinned only.
At this time when Obama a half black american is visiting India nd his wife a black lady herself looking very good with all nice features like big eyes.
.
I want to ask u few questions with regard to tv shows and entertainment business.:
1.Is color of the skin for lead actors male/female that much important?
2Does a fair skin is the one which makes u feel happy/
3.Is it enough if they act well and look presentable and watchable on screen?
or should they be charming princes and beauty queens with fair complexions as well.
I can give numerous examples of brown skinned men and women making it very big on the sher basis of talent hard work and loads of good luck Like Amitabh bachchan.Jaya bacchan.,, SRK., Bipasha.,Old timers like Vyjayanthi mala.,Asha parekh.,,shilpa shettty.,konkana sen sharma.,nana patekar., sridevi ,why even madhuri dixit is not so fair in color
..and also priyanka chopra (forgot thanx Jaya edited again i just love ehr style of acting)
and in small screen also except may be many of starone actors not mnay of the leads in any other channels are so fair complexioned ., they are all brown skinned and yet successful.
now share ur views.,anda slo share ur views as to why do some people attach so much imprtance to color of the skin even in these times.Is it in blood or what?
.

lol , have u seen BIDAAI show ?? they highlighted this issue ........

its common factor that people think looks r more imp than nature or character , looks define a person ......

well no, actor need not look like white paint , or something , they should be able to act ....

u named very best of the industry , well why do u think we have Katrina, Kareena, Deepika, Priyanak ruling in top spots when they dont even know A of acting , ok at times Piggy can act but rest r hopeless cases . , looks matter darling , rest can go to hell ..btw i love u for naming Konkana , she is a classy actress .......

one shouldnt get effected by this kind of comments , its time waste thing and shows shallow mind of a person

No, I think its very Shallow of people to rate actors by their skin colour...

Infact I like actors based on their Persona....I adore Bipasha...doesnt matter if she doesnt have a peaches and cream complexion...I think SRK is the best thing that ever happened to Bollywood...So what if he aint fair...!

What I look for in a lead is -

1. The Screen Presence and Acting...If you dont have that...Bye Bye !!

2.Eyes...I dunno....I really think expressive eyes go a long way in making you adore the actor..

3.Cuteness....M a sucker for cuteness😳....The twinkling eyes and cute hair styles look Awesome on Guys..!! Also how they carry their attires onscreen.

4.Expressions......and Comic timing...Very Important...If they are portraying an intense character...hold that charm and image...If they are playing a naughty character....just dialogue lines wont do...U gotta have that naughty look in your eyes...That amazing tinge of masti in the voice while delivering your dailogue...
5.Voice........Crisp and Awesome voice...! *sigh*....They all have it dont they...- Sujal..Shaan..Rohan...!
6.Wear and dress how you are comfortable...I dont like loud makeup....You dont need to look like a Superstar...but you need to look cute...! So that one can watch you and you can justify that you deserve to be a main lead...! Everyone cant become a main lead...!!

ur talking abut tv shows , i have seen worse things said to dark people, iam on side of medium , no one dare say anything to me , since i can kick their faces , but i hear all this said on back , people dont realize that color has nothing to do with a person , even the darkest person got beautiful eyes or so on ........ , i couldnt stop adding this

wow !! swati thanx for ur stunnning reply..
u have highlighed the main aspects of Yashashri masurkar which has made her so popular among us..
Yes u are right some people are a bit too much after white skinthought not all.
U have rightly mentioned a few of the most successful people and they are all brown/wheatish skinned.Ultimaletely talent.,hardwork and to some extent luck are all that matters.;
Now i am feeling much much better that all my friends in the forum are so pure hearted and very warm and mature too.
Glad that i made friends here in RBO forum Love all of u
loved all ur replies.

I dont think Yashashri is dark in the first place.No,Seriously.I mean she isn't fair and light eyed but yeah she has that whole traditional indian thing going for her.And acting is the main thing.If you cant act please get lost.No matter how goodlooking you are,people will just switch of the TV as soon as you open your mouth.

PS: I cant beleive how crude some people still are.
