Kangna Ranaut, who has always been known for her firebrand, honest interviews, asserts that she doesn't believe in actors endorsing fairness creams.
She told Koimoi, “Initially even I had got multiple offers to endorse fairness creams and they were offering me lump-sum amounts for it but I refused to do it. It is important to be responsible as celebrities and endorse the right things. We are expected to inspire zillions and hence if we attach ourselves to the wrong things or propagate false or shammy ideas, then it is really bad. As celebrities we cannot put down people of our country. It is very hurtful to a wide range of masses when a celebrity is endorsing some fairness cream. People belonging to such prestigious and esteemed position should not indulge in such petty things.”
She added ,”Such products uproot self confidence completely. So many people are doing so well all over the world today. We are human beings not soap bars manufactured out of the same machine. We are different and are meant to be different. I have no idea how people think but this is very wrong thinking! According to me, this is a criminal activity of sorts. Not only do the chemicals bleach your skin but this is shattering confidence of people so brutally. If you have to be accepted, you have to look a certain way.”
