Jackie Chandiru Opens Up About Struggles with Skin Tone and Marriage
Gifted singer Jackie Chandiru recently revealed that, during her school days, she considered lightening her skin. However, at the time, she didn’t think it was a realistic option.
In an emotional confession, the “Agaasi” singer shared her feelings after being asked whether she had ever felt uncomfortable with her skin texture. Her response was candid: “Yes.”
Chandiru reflected on a time when she would question why God had created her with darker skin, and, at times, even blamed Him for her appearance. Despite these thoughts, she made an effort not to dwell on them, as they could distract her from her academic focus. However, she admitted that the emotional struggle did affect her psychologically.
“I had the thought of lightening my skin during school, but I didn’t think it was possible,” she shared. “I just kept questioning God why He made me so dark. I blamed Him for some time. Thankfully, it didn’t affect my studies because I made sure I performed well. The only thing was that it psychologically disturbed me.”
On the topic of marriage, when asked if she plans to walk down the aisle again, Chandiru firmly ruled out the idea, stating that she would not marry again unless her current partner passes away.
