Re: Why is everyone on Pakistani TV so fair?
Talking of lighting - we were having a video conference. My white colleague’s face was very clearly visible, while my face appeared artificially darker. That led me to believe out here in the west, the lighting is adjusted to make a paler shade clearer, and in Bollywood, the lighting may be adjusted to make a darker shade lighter.
Rani Mukherjee and Kajol are other examples of actresses that are not fair, and may not have got consideration 2 decades ago.
