Simi Raheal, a respected veteran in the industry, deeply values arts and culture. Known for her roles as a teacher and scholar, she is never hesitant to voice her opinions. During her appearance on The Current, she discussed a wide range of topics, including her activism, education, and passion for arts and culture.

She highlighted that Pakistan’s colonial history has left a lingering impact, particularly evident in the mindset of its people. Many, especially among the elite, carry a colonial mentality, which they impose on the general population due to their influence and status. This has significantly shaped the collective mindset of Pakistanis, fostering colorism, where fair skin is often equated with beauty.

Raheal pointed out that numerous celebrities now have noticeably lighter skin tones compared to when they first entered the industry, leading to speculations about the use of whitening injections. She confirmed the existence of colorism, attributing it to a lack of education and the pervasive colonial mindset. Raheal further stated that the industry is heavily affected by this trend, with almost everyone resorting to whitening injections to achieve fairer skin.
