Abhay
Deol
has
always
been
one
of
those
celebs,
who
speak
their
mind,
without
caring
much
about
people's
opinions!
In
a
series
of
posts
on
Facebook,
the
actor
has
slammed
the
top
celebs
of
the
B-town
including
Shahrukh
Khan,
Deepika
Padukone,
Sonam
Kapoor,
Shahid
Kapoor
and
Sidharth
Malhotra
for
endorsing
fairness
creams.
An
actor/actress
is
not
just
an
artiste
but
he
plays
a
vital
role
in
influencing
the
public.
Be
it
us
or
you,
there
is
no
denying
that
at
some
point,
we
do
consider
our
favourite
actor/actress
our
role
model.
But
what
if
the
same
role
model,
begins
channelling
a
wrong
message
in
the
society?
Abhay
Deol
takes
a
dig
at
all
those
celebs,
who
are
endorsing
not
just
fairness
but
RACISM!
Read
his
posts
below
and
you
will
end
up
nodding
your
head!
Abhay
Deol
On
Shahrukh
Khan
"And
the
King
Khan
himself
asking
you-
(Translated)-
"Being
a
man
why
are
you
are
still
using
a
women's
FAIRNESS
cream!?"
He's
clearly
trying
to
make
you
a
man,
becoming
whiter
in
the
process
is
just
a
side
effect."
Abhay
Deol
On
Deepika
Padukone
"It
says
"2-IN-1
FAIRNESS
cream".
If
you
notice
her
eyes
are
also
lighter
than
they
are
in
real
life.
So
'2-in-1'
must
be
you
can
put
it
in
your
eyes
to
change
their
colour.
It's
not
so
much
a
'FAIRNESS'
cream
as
it
is
a
coloured
lens
for
the
eyes.
And
who
wouldn't
want
grey
eyes
eh?
It's
the
colour
of
Delhi
in
the
winter.
What
a
patriotic
cream!"
Abhay
Deol
On
Sonam
Kapoor
"Um...this
one's
kinda
hard
to
defend
as
it
does
say
on
the
side
of
the
packaging-
"Indian
women
agree,
skin
looks
visibly
fairer:
88%".
But
L'Oreal
is
an
international
brand,
do
they
show
the
same
racism
around
the
world
that
they
are
clearly
showing
here
in
India?"
Abhay
Deol
On
Sidharth
Malhotra
"If
you
look
carefully
he
has
some
black
dust
on
his
forehead.
It's
only
because
he
will
be
washing
that
off
is
the
cream
called
"Fair
and
lovely"."
Abhay
Deol
On
Shahid
Kapoor
"His
face
is
dark
on
the
right
only
because
that
part
of
the
paper
was
left
exposed
to
the
sun.
They
are
clearly
not
trying
to
show
a
dark
shade
going
on
to
light.
Shame
on
you
to
think
our
celebs
would
be
so
irresponsible,
there's
a
good
explanation
for
everything!"
Abhay
Deol
On
Vidya
Balan
"This
one
asks
the
question
"How
true
is
your
FAIRNESS?"
And
further
asks
if
you
just
have
an
"outer
WHITE
layer"
or
is
your
"radiant
FAIRNESS
from
within?"
It
even
has
the
words
'Veda' in
the
packaging
and
that
goes
to
prove
we
are
originally
WHITE
from
within.
Know
your
history
folks!"
Abhay
Deol
On
John
Abraham
"WE
ARE
NOT
A
RACIST
COUNTRY!
I
will
prove
it
to
you.
In
the
pic
below
John
holds
a
card
with
shades
from
white
to
dark.
Hey!
You
can
see
the
promise
of
darker
skin
too
if
you
read
the
card
from
left
to
right!
He's
not
telling
you
to
go
from
right
to
left!
Duh!
Even
if
the
writing
on
the
tube
reads
"Intensive
FAIRNESS
moisturiser".
It
just
means
its
'FAIR'
to
all
who
use
it."
Abhay
Deol
On
Ileana
D
Cruz
"The
reason
the
tube
reads
"WHITE
BEAUTY" is
because
the
photoshopping
on
her
skin
has
made
her
look
white
and
she's
clearly
a
beauty.
Abhay
concluded
by
saying,
"There's
a
lot
more
of
these
campaigns
that
are
blatantly,
and
sometimes
subtly,
selling
you
the
idea
that
whiter
skin
is
better
than
darker
skin.
No
one
at
the
top
of
their
game
in
any
field
is
going
to
tell
you
that
it
is
demeaning,
false,
and
racist."
"You
have
to
see
that
for
yourself.
You
have
to
stop
buying
into
the
idea
that
a
particular
shade
is
better
than
others.
Unfortunately
if
you
look
at
matrimonial
ads
you
will
see
how
entrenched
in
our
psyche
this
belief
is.
We
even
use
the
word
'dusk'
to
describe
the
colour
of
someones
skin!"
"While
an
individual
may
not
be
able
to
change
this
attitude
in
his/her
community,
he/she
can
at
least
start
with
the
family."
