YouTuber Dhruv Rathee has sparked controversy with a video alleging that several Bollywood actresses, including Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra, Kajol, Bipasha Basu, and Shilpa Shetty, have undergone skin-lightening treatments, specifically mentioning glutathione injections. Rathee claims their skin tone appears lighter now compared to the beginning of their careers. Padukone's fans have strongly defended her, attributing perceived changes to advancements in cinematography, lighting, makeup, and professional styling rather than medical procedures. The debate highlights differing views on beauty standards and celebrity appearances.
