Actor Amruta Subhash Recalls Colorism Impacting Her Confidence

Amruta Subhash, an actress, talked about how she felt bad because of how she looked when she was younger.

In high school, a dance teacher told her she couldn't be in the dance group because of her skin color.

This made her feel like she wasn't beautiful.

Later, when she started acting and faced rejections, she began to doubt herself, thinking only fair-skinned women could succeed.

She shared her story to highlight the negative effects of color-based bias and the need for more inclusive beauty standards in media.
