The Hindi film industry is full of glitz and glamour and there have been a lot of discussions about its obsession with fairness creams and fairness in general. Amid all this, Bipasha Basu has spoken about her duskiness and how it wasn't really welcomed in Bollywood when she began her career.
She spoke to PTI and made some revelations that came across as both shocking and surprising. She said, "I was told that 'actresses can't be sexy', that they can't be dusky, models can't act. At first, I was told 'you can't be so skinny.' Then when I put on weight, it was 'you can't be so fat.'"
