Nazwazuddin's reply to a Racist Person !
Nawazuddin Siddiqui on 17th July tweeted about racism where he mentioned how people make him realize that black people can't exist in Bollywood.The words from his tweet were:
"Thank U 4 making me realise dat I cannot b paired along wid d fair & handsome bcz I m dark & not good looking, but I never focus on that."
On Tuesday the same week he replied to the controversy around the tweet in the press conference of film 'Munna Michael' in Delhi where he posted,
" It was a statement made by a person to me, to which i replied by my tweet."
When asked if the industry follows Racism now a days, Nawaaz came up with his opinion,
"This thing exist everywhere in ever field in India."
Giving an example, he told the media that,
"I have been listening this since i was a child. Even when i was a child, my mother used to say, "Beta Bahu Gori hi Laana"(Son marry a white woman only) and when i used to go to other offices, they used to ask me, 'what do you do'
When i replied them that 'I'm an actor' they always watched me upward down and commented, 'Kahaan Se' (From which angle)
So yes, Racism exist in Bollywood and in other fields in India as well.

So yes, Racism exist in Bollywood and in other fields in India as well.
But to counter it Nawaz said
"Racism is there in india but still i'm doing films and nothing has stopped me from doing so"
We wish Nawaz should always do more and more films and should even do other roles like a 'Romantic Hero'
