Throughout her stint on Bigg Boss OTT 3, Poulomi demonstrated resilience and self-respect, even in the face of criticism from fellow contestant Shivani Kumari. She never allowed anyone to disrespect her or her work. After her eviction, Poulomi addressed the hate comments directed towards her because of her skin color during a press conference. Currently hosted by Anil Kapoor, the reality show has seen a variety of contestants, but Poulomi’s experience has highlighted ongoing issues of colorism.

In her statements, Poulomi revealed the extent of the abuse she faced online. According to Bollywood Shaadis, she shared, “Waha pe 50-60 comments mere colour pe hai. ‘Kali-kaluti, daayan, raat ko dikhegi nahi. Arey fair and lovely laga’.” These derogatory comments reflect deep-seated prejudices, but Poulomi has taken a strong stand against them.

The 28-year-old actress expressed that despite the negativity, she remains proud of her skin tone, which she believes sets her apart. She highlighted her previous role as the face of Fair and Glow, formerly known as Fair and Lovely, emphasizing her belief in her unique beauty. Poulomi asserted, “Mujhe nahi fark padta tum kya sochte ho mere baare mein. Mai jo bhi hoon mere colour ki wajah se hoon. Mai alag bhi dikhti hoon na camera pe toh mere colour ki wajah se. Mai is colour ke sath paida hui hoon. Mujhe sharam nahi hai agar apko sharam aa raha hai toh vo apka dimag hai. Apka soch ganda hai toh mjhe mera colour saaf karne ki jarrurat nahi, ap apna soch saaf karlo”.

Poulomi’s strong stance against colorism and her refusal to be shamed for her skin tone serve as a powerful message. She emphasizes that the problem lies not with her complexion, but with the prejudiced mindsets of those who mock her. Her words challenge societal standards of beauty and call for a change in perception.

Bigg Boss OTT 3, which streams on Jio Cinema, features a diverse group of contestants, including Ranvir Shorey, Chandrika Gera Dixit (known as Delhi’s Vada Pav Girl), Armaan Malik, Kritika Malik, Deepak Chaurasia, Lovekesh Kataria (Luv Kataria), Munisha Khatwani, Sai Ketan Rao, Sana Makbul, Shivani Kumari, Sana Sultan, Vishal Pandey, and rapper Naezy.
