Bigg Boss lady takes digs at Saaho Girl

According to the latest buzz in the film industry, Sri Lankan girl Jacqueline Fernandez will be seen shaking leg with Young Rebel Star Prabhas in upcoming action and romantic entertainer Saaho. Model turned nun and former Bigg Boss lady Sofia Hayat posted a screenshot of Saaho girl Jacqueline Fernandez’ recent Instagram post, and expressed disappointment at her apparently endorsing fairness product.

Recently Jacqueline Fernandez posted a pic of herself flaunting freckles on her face, and she also asked her fans and followers to talk about their skin problems. This post did not go well with Sofia Hayat and other netizens.

Sofia Hayat made comments on Jacqueline Fernandez and wrote, “Dear Jackie, We have met and I love your personality. That is why I was disappointed when I saw this on your Instagram. A fan asked you how to make skin fair, and you responded with a link to Lotus creams. I am not sure if you are being paid by them for advertising, which I guess you are, because the first thing you should have said to this person, is that making skin fair is a silly idea and you should be proud of the colour of your skin. As you know in India, having dark skin is mocked at, so if you supported this it would have been great! Dark skin is beautiful, and this pressure should not be put on people. It’s old fashioned and a very stupid way of thinking that fairness equals attractiveness. Secondly, the fairness cream by this company contains a certain chemical which is a known agitant to breast cancer.”

Dear Jackie We have met and I love your personality. That is why I was disappointed when I saw this on your Instagram. A fan asked you how to make skin fair, and you responded with a link to Lotus creams. I am not sure if you are being paid by them for advertising, which I guess you are, because the first thing you should have said to this person, is that making skin fair is a silly idea and you should be proud of the colour of your skin. As you know in India, having dark skin is mocked at, so if you supported this it would have been great! Dark skin is beautiful, and this pressure should not be put on people. It’s old fashioned and a very stupid way of thinking that fairness equals attractiveness. Secondly, the fairness cream by this company contains a certain chemical which is a known agitant to breast cancer. Methylparaben is widely used as a preservative in women’s cosmetics, such as skin creams and deodorants. This compound has been found intact within breast cancer tissues. Some researchers suggest that methylparaben may increase risk of breast cancer, or accelerate the growth of these tumors. I think you are a wonderful person, but please be responsible when you recommend something like this, people look up to you for beauty advice, and I am sure it was not your intention, and I know many stars are paid a lot of money to promote these things, but in life, morality, truth and health and more important than money. Namaste Shalom Salaam. Sofia Hayat
