what's up with that?

NArgis Fakhri, Katrina Kaif, Amy Jackson, Kalki Koechlin, Angela Johnson, J.Lo's self proclaimed sister Caterinna Lopez, Giselle Monteiro

why does Bollywood attract these chicks?

They don't know anything about India or it's culture , nor do they speak the language, what's so appealing about Bollywood and India?

What if Hollywood said the same thing about Indians?

Are you racist?

Hollywood wouldn't say this even if it felt it because hollywood is more politically correct.On the contrary, the filmmakers who opt for white skin solely based on color are racists. When Rimi Sen can say something like, "this director can make even a black African look pretty" on an interview, you know there's something wrong with bollywood or Indians for that matter. Color discrimination is rampant in India. These filmmakers only reflect the beliefs of the Indian society at large. Taking firangis into films isn't wrong in and of itself but choosing them over the home grown beauties solely based on color is. To be honest, it's not even racism just self-hatred which is the worst kind if you ask me.

LMAO Bollywood is hardly comparable to Hollywood, India is kind of an ''exotic'' country, and life there is not as if someone's moving to LA.

The movies, the movie themes, the culture, the life, itself is very different than life in Europe or the States, I'm just wondering what the recent attraction is, back in the day there weren't as many foreigners as today, so Bollywood's appeal must have increased to foreigners.

I'm not saying white folks should stay out, I'm just wondering what's attractive to them that they're getting their panties twisted to get in 🤢

that's what I'm thinking too, it's easier to get, the only requirements are fair skin and a decent face (for both Indian's and non Indian's) it's not like talent is a requirement.

It's not even a decent face.. It's fair skin and a full shapely body! I have thought If I saw a girl like Katrina walking in a a shopping mall .. Would I look twice!? And I don't think I would! There is nothing to her! Same with the rest.. But if I saw priyanka .. I'd stalk her

Indians have a tendency to think that Black's are beneath them, but they're actually very similar to black folks (African American's don't know about African's) in terms of self hatred, and racism among their own, many dark skin African American hate light skin AA, and vice versa, same goes for Indian's. a light skin Indian thinks he's above a darker skin Indian.
