Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's daughter  Suhana Khan, shared screenshots of the hate messages she received over her skin tone.  Suhana took to her Instagram to post some of the comments by netizens on her skin shade which was shocking. Suhana translated most of the comments on the picture itself as most were written in Hindi. The comments said that Suhana’s skin tone was ‘too dark’ and called her ‘not beautiful at all’. She shared a powerful message about the need to end colourism and said that she was extremely happy with her complexion and height. Along with the post, she wrote: “There's a lot going on right now and this is one of the issues we need to fix!! this isn't just about me, it's about every young girl/boy who has grown up feeling inferior for absolutely no reason. Here are just a few of the comments made about my appearance. I've been told I'm ugly because of my skin tone, by full grown men and women, since I was 12 years old.”

“Other than the fact that these are actual adults, what’s sad is that we are all indian, which automatically makes us brown - yes we come in different shades but no matter how much you try to distance yourself from the melanin, you just can’t. Hating on your own people just means that you are painfully insecure,” she added. Suhana also took to Instagram stories to thank everyone for their words of encouragement and said that she would never get her skin lightened. “Thank you for the nicest comments/messages. And umm no..l didn’t get my skin lightened loll I would never,” she wrote. Over the years, Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan's darling daughter Suhana Khan has always been an easy target of trolls.  Currently, Suhana is studying films at New York University. She completed her graduation from Ardingly College in England. Some time ago, she made her acting debut with a short film called 'The Grey Part of Blue'. Suhana is Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan's second  child. She has an elder brother named Aryan and the younger one is AbRam.
