Being a celebrity is always a good feeling, you have loads of people loving
you, following your style and your attitude but with fame and power there comes
a lot of responsibility and budding celebrity Swara Bhaskar certainly knows
hers.
Recently
the actress was approached by a skin care brand asking her to endorse a skin
lightening production, given that fairness creams are big paying brands any
other celebrity might have been tempted but not Swara, she put her foot down
and refused to endorse anything that puts a value and thus discriminates based
on one's skin colour.
“This
fair skin obsession has to be discouraged. Its so regressive and problematic to
put a value, negative or positive to skin Colour. It's actually the seeds of
racism and it only promotes low self esteem. For me, I believe in loving
yourself just the way you are. Dusky, dark or wheatish, you are perfect, all I
want to tell the girls is DON’T change?” quipped the actress.
