00:00Anyway, I had other questions about fair and lovely.
00:02I have no problem with the fair part of it.
00:04I have a problem with the lovely part of it.
00:07I think Deepika Padukone is lovely.
00:09She wearing cream, does she get home, wash her face
00:11and she's like, Ranveer, what the fuck are you wearing?
00:14That's a curtain, take that off.
00:16I think Meryl Streep is lovely.
00:18She wearing cream, does Meryl Streep just get home,
00:21wash her face, take the cream off
00:23and then she's just like an asshole
00:24to everyone in the house.
00:26She's like, you want to nominate me for an Oscar?
00:27Bitch, I am the Oscar.
00:29I don't know.
00:32I just wanted to talk to you specifically today
00:34about fairness cream, fair and lovely.
00:36It's been all over the internet.
00:39And everybody's kind of outraging against the cream
00:41because they're dropping the fair
00:42and they've said that for years now,
00:44fair and lovely has propagated racism
00:46and treatment of people in a certain way
00:49because of their skin color.
00:51And I don't think that's true.
00:52I don't think racism is real.
00:54Is it something that snowflakes made up to feel important?
00:56Anyway, I had other questions about fair and lovely.
01:00I have no problem with the fair part of it.
01:02I have a problem with the lovely part of it.
01:05How does a cream make you lovely?
01:07I don't understand.
01:09Please explain.
01:10I think Deepika Padukone is lovely.
01:12She wearing cream, does she get home, wash her face
01:14and she's like, Ranveer, what the fuck are you wearing?
01:17That's a curtain, take that off.
01:19I think Meryl Streep is lovely.
01:21She wearing cream, does Meryl Streep just get home,
01:24wash her face, take the cream off
01:26and then she's just like an asshole
01:27to everyone in the house.
01:29Me for an Oscar, I am the Oscar.
01:32I don't know.
01:33But you know, it really got me thinking,
01:34maybe there should be a cream that makes you lovely,
01:36if not fair.
01:37And I'm very pleased to announce that my company,
01:39Weird Ass Comedy, have invented such a cream.
01:42We're just gonna call this cream, Lovely Cream.
01:44Now what you do, it's very simple,
01:46is you apply Lovely Cream
01:48in different pockets of your face, like so, right?
01:53Just massage it in ever so gently.
01:56The cream genuinely just makes you lovely.
01:58It affects your personality.
02:00And the cream comes with a serum, like most creams do.
02:03You know, you have to have a cream and a serum together,
02:05but our cream is drinkable.
02:07Sorry, our serum is drinkable.
02:09So what you do is you apply the cream
02:12and then you take our serum and just drink it up.
02:24And you feel lovely.
02:25You genuinely do.
02:26The cream just makes you f***ing lovely.
02:29You start treating people unfairly.
02:31You're not fair at all, but lovely.
02:34Also, by the way, fairness creams,
02:35you know that they don't work, right?
02:37I mean, they don't make your skin lighter.
02:39They just prevent your skin from getting darker.
02:42Like if there was two of us
02:45and you use fairness creams every single day
02:49and I just didn't go outside,
02:51I'm starring in the Balaji serial.
