I am dark myself, so I was bullied over my looks a lot in school. It really affected me and this is why I'm really sensitive about such issues. Hence, I don't bash any character's looks even if I don't like them. Actors are subjected to so much scrutiny and some of the nasty things people say about them really shocks me. You don't actually know the person, so how can you be so nasty to them? I would never say such things about anyone, be it Soumya, because I know how much it hurts when somebody does the same to you. 🥺
I completely understand how you feel. Where I live it's very multicultural, so its rare for people to ever comment on one's skin, but among my family, its really disgusting, but some people choose to openly bash people regarding their looks, I was bullied regarding my acne at school and by some relatives too.
But I never understood why darker skin is not considered beautiful in Indian serials? We have so many black-white couples here!
Apu you're beautiful inside out! 😃😃
