Bollywood actors who had no qualms in going dark-skinned on the big screen

One of the primary things in Bollywood is that an actor or an actress needs to look good on the big screen. But to fit in the character, sometimes Bollywood stars don’t mind going de-glam and they actually don’t mind putting some make up that would make them look a few shades darker than their original skin tone.

Today, let’s look at the list of actors who had no qualms in going dark-skinned on the big screen…


Bhumi Pednekar

The first one on the list has to be Bhumi Pednekar. She is undoubtedly one of the most talented and gorgeous looking actresses of Bollywood. But in the recently released flick Bala, Bhumi plays the role of a dark-skinned girl who is confident about herself and doesn’t care about society. Well, the actress has carried the role wonderfully.

Hrithik Roshan

This year, Hrithik Roshan starred in two films, Super 30 and War. While in the latter he made us drool over his looks, in the former, Hrithik played a character we didn’t expect him to play. The actor went a few shades darker for his role in Super 30 and proved that he can even carry a de-glam avatar so effortlessly.

Ranveer Singh

Ranveer Singh is one of the hottest actors of Bollywood. In this year’s release Gully Boy, the actor was seen in a dark skin tone. As Murad, Ranveer impressed one and all, though he was playing a character with slightly dark skin, he still looked damn hot.

Alia Bhatt

Alia Bhatt is one actress who gets into the skin of the character like no one does. In the film Udta Punjab, the actress played the role of a girl from Bihar and was seen sporting the makeup that made her look a bit dark. Well, of course it paid off as she received many awards for her performance in the film.
