Would be interesting to know, when we become conscious of our skin tone.
As a toddler? At school? during teens? or at college? or in a job? or watching television?

As for me this realization dawned when i moved out from my cozy little hometown and started to work in the Middle East. As far as being in my town this was not at all a major concern or a issue. Maybe if i was a girl it would have been of prime importance since i would have been stuck with the indian marriage system. But being a boy it didnt really matter till i started to work in the Middle East amidst many fair skinned people,

very interesting observation you have. reminds me of a comment a friend of mine made about our bias based on skin color.

Good piece of work! Hope the movie is as good as the trailer sounds!!!

Just an observation: I have seen this happen in the movie ‘Satham Poodathey’ for the wonderful song ‘Allagu Kutti Chellam’ where they showcase the fair kids on the foreground and as if to add depth to the frame they place the darker ones at the back!!! A similar treatment here also. When do we start breaking these mindsets as communicators? It is a tough question. Where I the director whom would i cast?
