Beauty in Bollywood has crazy standards and benchmarks. People go through havoc to attain them and this makes their lives frenzied.
In this narrative, we will discuss how Beauty in Bollywood has changed its perception and how fresh this change is! If we go not more but just five years back, there have been strict standards of beauty that the film industry was bound to. Being tall and lean was a for pre-requisite for everything. It caused a lot of despair and broke the self-confidence of many females as they pushed themselves to change their natural body type. Is not it disgusting?
Fortunately, today there is a change! Film stars who have been looked upon as the epitome of beauty came in front, participated in several campaigns, and helped to completely whisk away the unnatural benchmarks that were set in regarding beauty. This is the time and age where everything is changing at a rapid rate. Everything is available with a click and so each and everyone is experimenting. The sad part is still there are judgments instead of empowering each other in the realm of the beauty industry. The need of the hour is to shoo such an attitude away.
The most celebrated change today is the acceptance of dusky skin. Take Bipasha Basu for example, people today call her a dusky beauty. Our culture in general is very racist when it comes to skin color. Beauty depends on perception and with so drastically different perceptions of people from corners of the world. is not it fickle to stick to strict rules of beauty? No face in the world is ugly, ugly is the mentality. As they say ‘ beauty lies in the eyes of a beholder’ can it ever be truer than today?
