When Manoj Bajpai, Nawazzuddin, Nandita Das, Konkana Sen Sharma becomes top stars of Bollyood and audience flock to watch their films, things will change. As many argue, it's a filmmaker's prerogative to offer movies to their favorites and their favorites are always the good looking movie children or model friends.
Nandita Das once mentioned that she got so bored after repeatedly being offered maid roles or someone from lower income because of her color.Even if movie stars stop endorsing such products, there will be market for it. Even in the US, brightening products, anti aging, products that clear spots, pigmentation, freckles etc. are in demand. The expensive spot correctors, glycoloc acid masks actually makes your color two shades lighter. It gives skin a beautiful glow. Why wouldn't people use it? That said, I am with Abhay Deol on it but who will erase the prejudice from our minds?

It's really appalling to see some being so ignorant about the presence of stigma in Indian society towards dark skin, specially girls. Where I come from, when a girl is born people don't ask whether she is healthy or not, they ask whether she was born fair or dark. If she is born dark that is equal to a curse for the parents and the child. The whole life she and the parents has to answer why she is so dark, who will marry them.
Then the parents have to think about gathering dowry. As the girl has dark skin tone the groom will demand much higher dowry as he will be doing a big favor of marrying her. The parents have to sell their souls to get their daughter married. Then during matchmaking, she has to undergo countless rejection for being dark, some even would say to her face how dark she is. After slew of rejection, she will find a groom who would take pity(and huge sum of dowry). An educated, kind, intelligent girl will get married to a guy double her age, SSC passed and who hardly makes his ends meet.
But god forbid if she finds love and gets married to a good looking, well settled guy. Then she has to live her whole life listening to taunts of butt hurt relatives and friends like "how can she get a husband like that", "she doesn't deserve him", "he will leave her soon". The in-laws too will not spare her, constantly taunting her , asking for dowry. Leading her to depression and eventually death by suicide.

I feel fair is beautiful. Your features truly stand out when you are fair. Brown is also okay, but pure black I don't find beautiful at all.
