I think Bollwood movies in general epitomize the general dilution indians have about their appearance. I mean, they never show people that look like real indians, everything is about colour and being fair to them and showing people with very non-indian like features.
Listen, there is nothing wrong with being darker skin or looking like an ''indian''. But Bollywood refuses to show what real indians look like. Main actors and actresses look nothing like 98% of indians.
I know someone's gonna mention that there are people that look like that in india and bring up the issues or pics of Sikhs (less than 3% of india's population; many of whom btw, are ''Mohajir's'' from Pakistan in 1947) and Brahmins (less than 4%). An anology would be if Pakistan made movies and only put people from Hunza or Chitral with blonde hair and blue eyes and said thats reflective of all Pakistani's; dont like that anology, well how abt if Iranian movies cast all their lead actors/actress the Turkomen north east of the country and gave the impression that all Iranians looked Central Asian with slighltly oriental eyes.
Fact of the matter is, we're not trying to bash or anything, but there is something very odd about Bollywood and the continuing dilutional image its broadcasting. Something very odd is happening there. It is very reflective of indians in general. Look at indian matrimonial ads, ''looking for tall, fair....'' lets just stop right there, you get my point, hopefuly. no pun intended.
