She is really light skinned and perceived to be prettier because she is.

If our language is anything to go by, 'white' people are the tribes that moved to colder, more northerly countries many thousands of years ago. Their DNA adapted and they became fair skinned because that helps to make the best use of limited sunlight.
To be prettier because you are light-skinned is merely a matter of fashion and taste. If I were to say that I (as an European) find the darker skin and finer features of the people of South India very attractive ... what would you say to that?
I believe that, in India, Tamils and people with as dark a skin as them are not considered as beautiful (except, perhaps, by their own kind). It is a matter of fashion, of caste and above all of snobbery.
What really matters is what is in the heart.

Aishwarya Rai was born in Mangalore, in the South Indian state of Karnataka, to Krishnaraj Rai, a marine engineer, and Vrinda Rai, a writer. *Her ancestors are from the Bunt community of Mangalore.[3]* Her family later relocated to Mumbai. Rai has one brother, Aditya Rai, who is three years older than she is. Aditya is a film producer, and has occasionally produced films in which Rai acted. Aditya got married in early 2004. [4]
Rai attended the Arya Vidya Mandir at Santacruz, Mumbai, then entered Ruparel College, Matunga, Mumbai. She was an A student and was on track to become an architect. [5] Rai's native language is Tulu; she also speaks Hindi, English, Urdu, Kannada, Marathi, and Tamil. [6]
Rai began modeling on the side while studying architecture. In the 1994 Miss India contest, she placed second behind Sushmita Sen, and went on to win the Miss World title that same year and the Miss Photogenic award.
