The actress, who is said to be proud of her dusky skin, recently turned down an offer to become the face of one such product.
A source says, `Esha feels that dusky women are no less attractive than a woman of pale colour. Take the example of some of our beauty queens like Sushmita Sen or Lara Dutta and even the Bong bombshell Bipasha Basu. They have never promoted a fairness cream and they feel proud to be called dusky.`
Esha's spokesperson confirms the news and adds, `Yes, Esha will never endorse a fairness product.`
