Apart from nepotism, many actresses have also faced rejection due to skin color.

Sobhita Dhulipala had told in an interview to Indian Express that she had to face rejections due to her skin color. She had said, “When you first start, everything is a battle. I am not from films. I remember that during my advertisement auditions, I was told many times that I am not ‘fair’. I was told straight to my face that I am not as beautiful as you see in advertisements.”

Sobhita Dhulipala had also told that she had to face countless rejections. Sobhita had said, “I was not associated with the film world. My entry was only through auditions. I worked as a model in the beginning. You also give auditions for advertisements… But I gave myself three years, and I gave auditions. I must have given 1,000 auditions in my life.
