“Kaali.” “Ugly.” “You should die.” Jamie Lever exposes Bollywood’s cruel reality.

    Share on

Comedian and actress Jamie Lever has spoken out about her harrowing experiences with colourism and fat-shaming in the entertainment industry. In a recent interview, the daughter of veteran comedian Johnny Lever revealed how deeply hurtful remarks about her appearance took a toll on her self-esteem. Jamie recounted being called derogatory names like “kaali,” “chudail,” and even being told she was “too ugly for the industry” and that she “should die.”

These comments, both online and in person, reflect the deeply ingrained biases in society regarding skin colour and body image. Jamie, who has carved a niche for herself in comedy and acting through talent and persistence, said the insults left her questioning her self-worth and career choices. However, rather than succumbing to the negativity, she has chosen to speak out and use her platform to raise awareness about the damaging effects of beauty standards in the film industry.

Jamie emphasized the need for inclusivity and representation in Bollywood and urged people to move beyond superficial judgments. Her candid account sheds light on the emotional impact of societal biases and serves as a powerful reminder of the resilience it takes to thrive in an industry still grappling with issues of appearance-based discrimination.
