In an interview with Telugu website Behindwoods, Pallavi said, This is Indian colour. We can’t go to foreigners and ask them why they’re white, and if they know that they will get cancer because of it. We can’t look at them and think we want that. That’s their skin colour and this is ours. Africans have their own colour too and they are beautiful.”

“What will I do with the money I get from such an ad? I’ll go home and eat three chapatis or rice, go around in my car. I don’t have other big needs. I see if I can contribute to the happiness of people around me or if I can say that these standards we see are wrong,”

Sai Pallavi was last seen in Athiran and she will be next seen in Selvaraghavan-directed NGK, co-starring Suriya.

Sai Pallavi is a physician by profession. She completed her medical degree in 2016 from the Tbilisi State Medical University, Georgia
