Ankita Bhargava Asks Trolls: So What If My Husband Karan Patel Is Fairer Than Me?
Yeh Hai Mohabbatein star Karan Patel’s wife Ankita Bhargava has spoken out against the abuse she faces at the hands of online trolls because of her skin colour
Karan Patel and
Ankita Bhargava’s marriage has irked plenty of detractors online who have often
attacked the couple.
Some trolls had
targeted Ankita, abusing her because she is darker than her husband.
And now she has
replied to them.
“I am not shallow
enough to have a complex about my complexion. I am fairer and darker, both at
the same time, than most of my friends and colleagues from the industry. As for
Karan being fairer, how does that matter. We are not ruled by the British
anymore, we are brown, that’s what we are. Being not so fair by your standards
does not make me a lesser person. I am still a decent wife, daughter sister,
friend in my opinion and trying to get better with each passing day, learning
and growing,” wrote Ankita.
Karan Patel's fans have come to Ankita's support by reposting the message on their pages.
“The beauty of a
woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in
her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows.
The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years. - Audrey Hepburn. People
talk about women empowerment, gender equality, feminism, women's dignity. By
the end of it women themselves don't respect other women. Isn't it the irony of
life?,” they wrote.
