Comedians need to be given due importance otherwise this profession will die out.

If a man is short, tall or fat, he can only get certain types of roles, and we are bound to agree with that because we are in showbusiness. What we show becomes our business. In our industry there is more color shaming than body shaming. Everyone is crazy about fair complexion. And sadly, things will stay that way.”
