Different Skin Color of Feet and Face, Gauri Khan Becomes the Target of Indian Netizens

Kapanlagi.com - Gauri Khan has recently become the target of netizens due to her Instagram post. The wife of Shahrukh Khan was bullied by Indian netizens because of the different color of her feet and face.

In the photo, Gauri is wearing a knee-length dress. This makes her feet appear darker than her brighter face.

This difference then caused Indian netizens to make unpleasant comments. They questioned why Gauri's feet were dark while her face was bright.

1. Suspected of Wearing Stockings

It is not really strange when the legs are dark while the face is brighter. It is strongly suspected that this mother of three is wearing dark-colored stockings as a fashion accent.

With stockings, Gauri's skin will appear darker if she chooses a dark tone color. And it is normal for someone to choose dark stockings for style.

2. Difference in Skin Color Still a Sensitive Issue in India

Until now, the difference in skin color is still a sensitive issue in India. One of the problems is related to the caste system that is still applicable there.

Those with dark skin then make it brighter with whitening creams or frequent treatments are often criticized. Because this is considered as a form of 'ungratefulness' and an attempt to deny the original skin color of Indian people.

Shahrukh Khan himself has been involved in a controversy with the Indian public for promoting skin whitening creams. He is considered to not appreciate the original brown skin color of India.

Regarding Gauri, Shahrukh did not comment on anything. Meanwhile, Gauri also did not respond to the numerous comments that came to her personal account.
