Sai Pallavi on No Makeup in Movies
In an interview earlier, the Premam star was asked about not wearing makeup for her films. Sai Pallavi told Times of India, “I was one of those teenagers who felt horrible about having acne. I used to cover my face with a dupatta when I was in Georgia. It took Premam and Alphonse for me to realise that people love you for your character and the confidence with which you portray it. Even on the day of the release, I held my mother’s hand and said that I hope people don’t write me off. We’ve always had actors with flawless skin on screen all these days, and when you suddenly see somebody who is looking real, it becomes different.”
The Ramayana actress added, “This gave me the confidence to encourage people who had complex issues. People have different perceptions about beauty. They think it is all about having flawless skin, great hair etc. Then, there is fair skin vs dark skin debate. Beauty is all about how confident you are in your own skin. Be it Vijay sir, Balaji Mohan sir, Selva sir or the directors I have worked with in Tollywood – I am happy to be working with directors who are cool about me being myself. In fact, all the directors don’t want me to wear makeup, too. I am happy if girls feel proud about themselves, their natural body image and consider me an inspiration. And yes, I’m not going to use makeup in the future, too.”
Meanwhile, Ramayana reportedly stars Sunny Deol as Lord Hanuman, along with Lara Dutta and Arun Govil. The film is expected to release in 2025, but there is no official confirmation yet.
