How they're trying to find the solution
| | Air pollution in Delhi became better for a couple of days, but now it's back to the 'severe' category. It's killing us. And as netas tell us eating carrots could protect us from the bad air, Huffpost India's Gopal Sathe reports that start ups are working hard to find a solution. Meanwhile, Bala hit theatres this weekend. Rohini Chatterji writes that while it seems like the film aspires to break stigmas around dark skin, it ends up reinforcing them by hiring a light-skinned Bhumi Pednekar to play a dark-skinned woman. Also: don't miss Ankur Pathak's intense interview with Anupam Kher. |

| | | | | | Even though Bhumi Pednekar is a fabulous actor, it’s impossible to believe that the makers of Bala couldn’t find a single dark skinned female across from across India to play the role. For some young girl in some corner of India, it may seem like you have to be a light skinned woman to even play a dark skinned woman in Bollywood. |
