Ushna Shah shuts down troll for having ‘Gora complex’  

While fans adored her childhood picture for how cute she looked while she was a kid, there was one comment that trolled her for her skin colour.

Islamabad (Pakistan Point News – 18th February, 2019) Actress Ushna Shah is known for speaking her mind and just recently, she came across a comment that targeted her for her skin colour.

Ushna Shah had recently shared her childhood picture on her Instagram.

Making a pout while she was young, Ushna looked super cute.

“Mama told me, long before I ever came up. Gotta be true, to what you do and keep your game up,” Ushna captioned the picture.

While her fans adored the picture for how cute she looked while she was a kid, there was one comment that trolled her for her skin colour.

A follower commented, “Bachpan se kaali ho hahah” (You are dark skinned since childhood).

This didn’t go well with Ushna as she shut the troll for his ‘Gora complex’.

“These are the people who couldn’t get the chance to play outside in childhood. The seeds of inferiority complex put in their minds by the British have their roots even stronger now and have turned into a jungle. We can only pity them and pray for their upcoming generations,” she replied to the comment.

The follower later apologised and said Ushna is his favourite.

However, this points out to the sad reality that there is a highly entrenched culture in Pakistani society that prefers fair complexion.

Just as the world is progressing, Pakistan needs to come out of this Gora complex and embrace people for how they are.
