Most lighter skinned desi ppl don’t have euro features tho (I mean as in sterotypical northern european features like a smaller nose), most tend to look more Turkish/Arab/Iranian than European no matter how pale they are..

Freida Pinto is obviously quite dark but her features look more european imo (her cheekbones, the nose etc.).. Someone like Kareena Kapoor might be milky white but there’s no way anyone would say she has euro features, same with Katrina Kaif..

I remember learning this in Anthropology, racial classifications are inherently flawed and unscientific. We think we can classify people into racial groups accurately, but quite a lot of the time it’s not backed by science and different people see things differently. I think that’s the case here. To my eyes, Pinto looks less euro than Kapoor, while Kaif is most euro looking.

At any rate, I’d like to close with a little cautionary note. I never rely on women’s opinions of other women’s beauty. Unless they are lesbians or bi, they just aren’t looking at the women they judge the same way a man would.
