Although Yami Gautam has modelled for a number of fashion brands, she has been often trolled for promoting Fair and Lovely. Last year, the beauty brand changed its name and revamped its marketing strategy due to the Black Lives Matter protest.

In 2019, during the promotions of Bala, Yami Gautam talked about getting trolled for promoting the fairness cream, in a conversation with The Quint, Gautam told, “When I got trolled, I was fairly new to this industry. Before that people don’t know that right after Vicky Donor when it turned into an endorsement, I had a meeting with the brand. I said, ‘Listen guys, there is no problem promoting the brand. You have fairness and tanning creams abroad. But the idea to show that not being fair is something to be unhappy about, that’s not right.’ Maybe the name Fair and Lovely has been retained, so it is difficult to see beyond that, but the four faces are gone. All this ‘gorapan‘ and the kind of ads which were being made, thankfully aren’t there anymore. They shouldn’t be.”
