Prachi Nigam | The Topper & The Trolls | Young Achiever Attacked For Facial Hair, Shuts Down Haters

Prachi Nigam scored 98.50% marks in UP Board exams as she topped the state. But It was not her achievement that grabbed the attention of some social media users but her physical appearance. Soon, trolls started mocking her facial hair, sidelining her feat.
Watch this report by Harshit Sharma as Prachi Nigam responds to the trolls.

She is correct. I am a person from Kerala and I wouldn't even have known that she existed if there were no trolls. I think that she is the most famous state board topper thanks to her trollers

[@neevhingrajia3822]

But this isn't the kind of attention she sought. This is basically just humiliation, so don't glorify the trollers as if they did something really good.

But its really disheartening seeing a 16 y o teenager getting this much humiliation at such a small age instead of getting appreciated of her achievement. Idk if I could have handled such humiliation if I had been in that situation. She's such a strong person.

[@SM-ef5rl]

Atleast people of Kerala and Chennai are not obsessed with lookism. They value education, personality development and skills which are more important. Looks fade but virtues don’t. No doubt people there are more educated.

Bollywood has played a big role in shaping people's minds. Only a girl with a fair Skin, a certain type of body shape, and bleached face is considered a sign of beauty. Ironically, Karan Johar had to cast Alia Bhat who has Kashmiri ancestry to play a role of an South Indian from Tamilnadu in the movie two states

[@_suki_]

👌

[@its.achiever_]

Agreed 😢

[@Divya4253]

Correct 💯

[@YoursTAngel]

Indian society has always been obsessed with fair skin. 90s & early 2000s had many dusky / dark skin actresses like Kajol, Rani, Bipasha, etc...infact our beauty queens Sushmita, Lara dutta, even Katrina kaif who was admired by everyone.

[@notrealatall196]

She has the right attitude... intelligence. I see her having a great future. What she said is so true. So many girls have this hormonal issue. They grow up... get good education.. good income and enjoy life. They thread eyebrows or do laser if hey want or else leave it. Its as simple as that Its all

her mother is so mature,and just like a mother taking stand for her she's super supportive, amazing 😻 and"we dont give a damn" type. Hats off to her confidence. This world is so cruel and people r just brainless, ignoring her scores and obsessing over her facial hair,like seriously:(

@sidra :- it's sad to know dt bchi is getting mistreated by people dt r Black brown like her.. they r not even goras.. but she got trolled in the first place cuz her parents r careless they didn't care to get her treated from a doctor neglecting this issue.. look at the mother saying "abhi to kar lo pdhai ka fir bad me kbi ye treat ho jaega bdi bemari treat ho jati h ye kya h".. this means she knew wat da problem was before her child was getting trolled to ilaj to inki beti ka inko khud hi Krna tha kyu.. nobody else is gonna do it for them.. ye dikkat lekar baithne vli soch h inki ..

Bismillah (In the name of Allah) Prachi, I don't know if you're reading this but I have a msg for you. "You are awesome queen! You are studious, hardworking, talented and fabulous ❤ the haters who are mocking you for your looks are sitting in their chaddi banyan and laying down on the khatia and seeking shelter in their parent's home! You know why prachi? Bcz they're not as hardworking as you're. They failed in their examinations and now they're on the social media trolling people. Those people already have low self esteem and a failure attitude so they're trying to seek some attention on the internet. Just focus on your studies and may you succeed in every field ✨ lots of love for u ❤ "

The recruiter in your future wont "give a damn" about your marks too. Pretty privilages exist in the society and it is a harsh reality. There's nothing wrong in making yourself look beautiful, even though it is a taboo in India for some reason.

The point was - she, a fifteen year old, has achieved something huge towards her career and instead of congratulating her on her achievement, people are trolling the little child for her looks and showing absolute pedophilic behavior. The point was, those comments were a representation of how we've failed as a society
