 lake babo was the place for me where i find myself so happily morning jesus god thanks so much for all the guys we've got really good squad follow some person each channel it's like a scripture ever been to a nudist beach yeah when i was a kid yeah hawaii do the kids go nude too no i didn't realize as you're a kid yeah you're a kid you wouldn't notice anything like that i know but yeah um are there nudist beaches in india i can't imagine there are i bet there are they're just probably very remote and you have to know you're going private island location very few i'd imagine like i heard i don't know if this is true i heard that like every beach in france is topless is that true they're just very open about the prospect of i've seen like i'm billboards and things they said that they're very open about like that's no different for a woman to be topless in the man probably not normie d too much death we're two jokes too soon oh wait uh anyways so what are we doing today this is none nadita das about dark dark is beautiful campaign so she talks about dark skin people in the industry okay um she i think we've seen her in something uh but uh i do have seen her in and we liked her yes uh but we haven't explored her as much as uh you know i think we've seen her what once or twice she was in monto yes uh yes ah okay this is where i know because i know of fire she's the lead in fire uh but she was in monto right for sure she was in monto um sorry i'm looking at her whole filmography here i remember seeing her and talking about that she was had such a beautiful presence on screen beautiful face i think that's where we saw her yeah it's gotta be uh anyway uh you guys could tell us where we know her from i think it was monto but it also we've seen trailer reactions of her yeah uh but this is her talking about uh i believe dark skinned people in the industry and we know of those um some of the situations that come up because you are dark skinned uh i suppose to fairer skinned in what they ask of you sometimes yeah just it's uh it's just so laborious to me that it's even yeah and annoying that it's that it's even continued to be talked about to me it's just so disappointing yeah but uh this is what this is yeah here we go so much in so little time every article of mine always begins with dark industry you know it has to has it that qualification without that i mean complete when you when you write about you know various actresses who are mostly fair you don't start with the fair kareena the fair ashwarya the fair prayanka but if it is dark because it's such an admiration it's always written about um a lot of people who practically politically correct they say oh we love the dark skin in fact i like dark women more now you don't have to like them more you know you either like somebody or you don't like you don't like them or not like them because of their nose or their teeth or the color of the skin of the head these are wrong reasons to like someone in any case when because i do mostly films that are with real characters real women who are many of them who are dark so it's fine but when i do and let's say an upper middle class character you know a class that i come from often the directors will come and tell you listen this is a study upper class character do you mind making it a little bit fair i hope you don't mind let's say please are you telling me that only the lower classes women are dark and that nobody across the class or asked or whatever is not so it's such a mindset it's such a stereotyping and we keep perpetuating that you know so it is a very dangerous trend but everybody now in the industry knows that i keep fighting about it and i'm very vocal about it every opportunity i get i speak about it in the hope that you know some women will be in that confidence a lot of women do come up to me and say oh we feel you know i have i have seen parents telling the daughter see she's dark but she's fine with it and things like that it's so bizarre the obsession in this country with their skin that it sits it's really sad that's all i can say you know especially in your mainstream you have to have the one who's fair so as it is but thankfully i don't like to do too many mainstream films unless it is a mainstream structure but the film and the subject is really strong which very seldom happens and even if it does there of course one still stereotypical looking when my head is not perfect as you can see i've tried it in a bag and over clip and my body is not perfect and you know my nothing is perfect so the hard work that is needed for that kind of perfection anything i can do i think i have far more interesting things to do in my life than to keep worrying about this so i'm sure i've lost up on roles but it's okay thankfully i'm not a very ambitious actress it's not like i want to be the best actor in this world or country or whatever so i'm quite relaxed about it if interesting and good roles and good films and good stories come to me and thankfully they do i choose from that and sometimes they don't that's fine i have other things to do that keep me happily busy uh well there are many now many fairness creams have come in the market including the ones for your underarms that there is a cream now for the vagina which is bizarre and it has a stupid campaign which says that even your private parts to the you know to someone who loves you you must make it fair i know some stupid so you know it's just what it's completely crazy the obsession but this is market created as well and you know there is an excess almost of everybody and you see the films it mostly has fair heroines and the ones that were dark before you see their first film and you see the same actresses now there's a huge difference you know they were they would write dark and dusky and now they still write dusky but they're not dusky anymore they've all become like completely white you know so it's really sad you see hoardings you see advertisements i remember a friend of mine was also dark she picked up a magazine and you know she said all beauty magazines are here to make you feel ugly because they're always telling you that you know you are not good enough you could do this you could and i think this is a really a marketing thing which is harming a lot of people because what they're losing is they won't self-esteem their confidence and for something that they're just born with i mean how ridiculous is it even though they understand it intellectually i think the pressure around is so much that it's you start feeling small and you want to do something about it it's just something that has become an area of interest of passion to some extent because of what it is doing to millions of girls and boys and especially young girls who feel very pressured you know whether it's in their workplace whether it's in their family they're constantly being told that if you're dark you won't get married you want nobody will look at you you want to get a good job so i think this obsession that indians and i think south asians or a lot of developing countries have but i think it's always like in the western world people want to get in here they want to you don't become fair so it's it's that wanting what you don't have kind of a syndrome so it's something that over the years has just become something that i take up as a cause because i see so many women and suffer unnecessarily i was very fortunate that my parents didn't give me that complex at all you know they were that we found yes they're very very blessed they nurtured many other talents and she's very blessed and all of that instead of worrying about something that you're just born with whether it's the color of the skin your nationality your nose your whatever so it's over the years i realized that this does take away the confidence of a lot of people so some when somebody emailed me saying we're doing this campaign and we like to use sort of your photograph and you know quote from you and all of that i said sure i mean if it helps people feel that oh the others were dark and are not all the time thinking about it or are not obsessed with it or don't feel low about it or you know are not complexed about it then it's it's great if it inspires somebody yes i'm saying that correctly i believe so for speaking up on that issue yes because i know it's a deeply rooted issue in all of indian society yes um and it makes no sense to me but you know we have we have racism here it makes no sense to anybody else i was i was having this conversation with my mom last night we were having dinner and she was telling me about a couple she knows whose family of the wife was white and she was she is married to a black man and the wife's family wants nothing to do with her or her children the parents don't want to see their own grandchildren nothing because she married a black man cut them out and fuck them the the first thing i said to my mom was i said i can't remember when i first noticing people were different in that there was such a thing called racism which i thanked her and my dad for that i grew up in a home who my parents never said or thought anything differently about anyone based on who sexual orientation religious belief skin color right but then i thought and this is true the the idea that someone is lesser than or better than because of skin color i was like why did we stop with the skin if that's that's the thing is that the same pigments did hair so it's as stupid as saying you married a brunette i i do not approve of you marrying a brunette it's the exact it's as stupid as that yeah i will never understand it ladies please don't in any way shape or form bleach your vaginas or make your vagina skin lighter if you're pressured to do that leave whatever you can in some way shape or form to go somewhere where you'll be accepted for the beautiful person god made you as you are i can't believe i heard that that's actually a product and obviously we've known about the fairness cruise that many bollywood stars have supported yeah uh which is unfortunate yep and that's the other thing guys she had mentioned the director making the statement about you're going to be a higher class person so we can maybe lighten your skin do you know why the director made that choice everything they do in the film industry they do because of you because you'll buy the product you'll see the film so if you want them to stop doing it stop buying the product stop putting money into the films that are doing those kinds of things and sometimes you do it ignorantly you know there's times you do something and then you find out later on oh that was a mistake or i didn't realize that yeah but when you know full blown going in uh the ones that have the power are the ones that are giving them their money yep and that's us yep yep um so it's it's a very unfortunate issue just so sad just know that um you're beautiful the way you are man or woman uh i know the fairness thing is something that goes for both women women and men uh in india um in terms of being pressured to not be the dark skin person or and it always looks which is unfortunate it always was even talked about he did yeah he's dark so they gave him a gun right and it always with all dark skin people are right bad guys it always looks wrong too because you're not the color that you know your pigment matches everything for a reason you know like if you were to change your hair color and go bleached blonde it's gonna look a little weird on you yeah just look white yeah it would look really strange because your skin pigment matches your hair pigment matches your eye pigment and i just i've seen i just i will never understand the prejudice period but on skin color it just it's evil it just boggles the mind anyway yeah well just love yourself yeah that's all like room paul says because if you can't love yourself how in the hell are you gonna love anybody else can i get an amen no that's root give root paul an amen no he deserves it no she deserves it no
