नस्लीय मानसिकता के खिलाफ अमेरिका सहित दुनियाभर में चल रहे आंदोलनों के बीच फेमस कंपनी यूनिलीवर ने अपने ब्यूटी प्रोडक्ट 'फेयर एंड लवली' का नाम बदलने का फैसला किया है। इस ब्रांड की पैकेंजिंग से फेयर, व्हाइटनिंग और लाइटनिंग जैसे शब्दों को हटा दिया जाएगा। इस फैसले पर लोगों का रिएक्शन सामने आ रहा है, लेकिन इस बीच बिपाशा बासु ने एक चौंकाने वाला खुलासा किया है। उन्होंने बताया है कि स्किन कलर की वजह से उन्हें फिल्म इंडस्ट्री में किन-किन उलाहनों का सामना करना पड़ा था। 

बिपाशा बासु ने लिखा, 'जबसे मैं बड़ी हो रही थी तो मुझे हमेशा यही सुनने को मिलता था कि बोनी सोनी से ज्यादा डार्क है। वो थोड़ी सावंली है ना? मेरी मां भी सांवले रंग की खूबसूरत महिला रहीं और मैं काफी हद तक उनकी तरह दिखती थी। मुझे कभी समझ नहीं आया कि जब मैं बच्ची थी तो रिश्तेदार इस बात को लेकर चर्चा क्यों करते थे।'

From the time I was growing up I heard this always,”Bonnie is darker than Soni.She is little dusky na?“Even though my mother is a dusky beauty and I look a lot like her.I never knew why that would be a discussion by distant relatives when I was a kid. Soon at 15/ 16 I started modelling and then I won the supermodel contest ... all newspapers read ... dusky girl from Kolkata is the winner.I wondered again why Dusky is my first adjective ??? Then I went to New York and Paris to work as a model and I realised my skin colour was exotic there and I got more work and attention because of it. Another discovery of mine:) Once I came back into India and film offers started... and finally I did my first film and from an absolute Ajnabee to Hindi film industry ...I suddenly was accepted and loved. But the adjective stayed which I started liking and loving by then.DUSKY girl wows the audiences in her debut film. In most of my articles for all the work I did,my duskiness seemed to be the main discussion.. it attributed to my sex appeal apparently.And sexy in Bollywood started getting accepted widely.I never really understood this... To me sexy is the personality not just the colour of your skin...why my skin colour only sets me apart from the conventional actresses at that time.But that’s the way it was.I didn’t really see much of difference but I guess people did.There was a strong mindset of Beauty and how an actress should look and behave.I was DIFFERENT as it was pointed out. Didn’t really stop me from being and doing all that I loved. Well you see I was confident and proud of who I was from childhood.My skin colour didn’t define me ... even though I love it and wouldn’t want it to be any different ever. Many skin care endorsements with loads of money was offered to me in the last 18 years ( some were very tempting)... but I stuck to my principle always. All this needs to stop. This wrong dream that we are selling ... that only fair is lovely and beautiful when the majority of the country is brown skinned. It’s a deep rooted stigma. It’s a mammoth step from the brand... and other brands should follow in the same footsteps soon🙏
