In an Interview to USA Today , Freida Pinto opens up about her Break Up and India's fascination for white Skin
On her Break Up with Dev
Everybody has their own little discoveries to make. Their own surprises, their own disappointments, and they're all part and parcel of life," she says. "There is no way one person can sit down and go, 'But why did this happen to me?' Or, 'It was all going well, what the hell happened?' Or, 'No, this just can't be,' the denial of it."
"Running away from it is not going to help you find your answers. So we're facing it. And we're dealing," she says. "And Dev and I are best friends. That's never going to change."
On India's Fair and Lovely Obsession
A lot of girls growing up in India do not realize the beauty of their beautiful tan skin tone. Skin-lightening products are a big seller in the Indian cosmetics industry. On one of my trips to Los Angeles, someone walked up to me and said, "You have the most beautiful caramel-chocolate skin." In L.A. everyone is sunbathing or going to tanning shops; I wish the 1.2 billion people in India could have a little peek into this culture and appreciate what they have.
