Or at least to become able to drop a few 'dravidian' features; at least just that much to make people doubt that one is a caucasian !!
Alas, all the cosmetics and cosmetic surgery that money power and today's technology can command cannot secure the needed change in racial features! So indelible are the dravidian features of Asin and others of her ilk, just like they are for everyone belonging to her race !!
If dropping 'dravidian' features is not possible at all, then the next best thing would be to have as many of them obscured under layers of make-up besides making these features less conspicuous with mimicked western mannerisms, facial expressions, shrugs, rolling of the eyes, grins so wide (that sometimes actually leave onlookers non-plussed rather than charmed) that dark gums are much more frequently visible these days than in days bygone, etc. Hopefully, such efforts can be complemented by painstakingly aping western fashion, hair-do besides western phraseology, gags, one-liners, etc. !
The manner in which Asin labours to ‘carry’ herself is ample testimony for all this !

first & foremost stop acting like a westerner!
It is you northies who try your level best to 'act' (yes just ACT) like caucasians. Just fair skin isn't evrything my northie friend!! you require brains other than skin.
It is b'cos of racists like you, that our entire nation is facing so many obstacles in our development

Not only Dravidians but also Aryan north Indians will find it difficult to act like Caucasians, whatever they try. Asin became famous when she was invited to act in Ghajini. It has nothing to do with her attempts to change her facial features. Today it is the media which is projecting her more than herself. As far as her Dravidian looks are concerned, most North Indians who watched Ghajini did not know that she is a Malayali till they were told about it. Most till believe she is a Bengali or a Punjabi.

By God.. is this a beauty? where exactly? She looks like a heijddra..and white painted at that...i've watched a few tamil movies where she looks really comical, in plaited hair and ribbons.. very much ordic=nary looking.. only thing is she's ready to show her skin.
