Yesterday, Abhay Deol took to social media to take a dig at actors who endorse fairness creams. His hit-list included Shah Rukh Khan, Sonam Kapoor, John Abraham and Deepika Padukone.


Abhay wrote, "Campaigns are blatantly selling that whiter skin is better than darker skin. No one is going to tell you that it is demeaning, false, and racist. You have to stop buying into the idea that a particular shade is better than others."
