At the time there were no long lasting pigments as you describe, and most people opted chemical depigmentation, which is irreversible. If you have ever met anyone with Vitiligo you wouldn’t be so cavalier. You look ridiculous literally half black and half white, and the pigmentation would need to match your EXACT skin tone.

Do you have any proof that he did have Vitiligo or are you going on what you read on the Internet?

I've seen scores of people with it. Mostly in the local Desi population.

Nobody cares.

My son has psoriasis which affects his hands, causes some discoloration. As a child he spent quite a bit of time trying to explain to people it wasn’t contagious. Kids can be cruel, you know. But, after seeing adults on this thread... so sad.
