Randeep Hooda refuses to endorse fairness product

The handsome Randeep Hooda is perhaps one of the industry’s most understated actors. Having received much praise for his role in ‘Highway’ (2014) and also this week’s release ‘Rang Rasiya’, the actor has rejected an endorsement recently. He was uncomfortable in endorsing a fairness cream, it has come to light.

Hooda has apparently said, according to Bollywood Hungama, that he doesn’t believe that there should be an obsession with fairness and has instead gone on to say that he thinks being tall, dark and handsome is the right look for men. He is believed to have been offered a hefty sum for the endorsement deal but he turned it down all the same.

Hooda went on to encourage girls to be confident in their own skin, no matter what tone it might be.
