It is a good thing that now our filmmakers are not shying away from bringing films based on the LGBTQI fraternity.  It is important that mainstream cinema shows these marginalized stories on the big screen.  

So that in small towns, where there is still a conservative mindset towards this community, the misconceptions there are removed.  In English it is said that no stigma means stigma, films prove to be effective in correcting it.  Today 'Badhaai Do' has been released.  

Two months ago 'Chandigarh Kare Parthia was released.  The common thread in both of them is their topic.  Both have talked of 'The LGBTQI community.  In recent years, Ayushmann Khurrana has been one of the first major actors to have the fraternity talk prominently in films.  

She was in the lead role in 'Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan' and in 'Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui' she played the role of a trans woman opposite Vani Kapoor.  Now Rajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar are doing the same with 'Badhaai Do'.  Right now our films have reached that stage where the whole story is about the entire journey of those characters.  

There is no emptiness or incompleteness in them.  Goes to the bottom of the sexual orientation of those characters.  This is despite the fact that in most parts of the country, preferences related to carnal interest are still viewed as something strange.  We have to reach a point where we stop looking at that aspect with wonder.  

However, it will take time.  Often people say that these stories are  There are writers or directors who are not themselves straight gays or lesbians.  So it is wrong for them to make films on such subjects.  I think this thinking is not correct.  

I believe that anyone who is sensibly bringing stories from that community at the current stage should be welcomed.  That is because now that we have started discussing those subjects.  Otherwise, in earlier films, such subjects or characters were used only for humor.  

Seeing them, they used to worry about how feminine they used to have feminine behavior.  This fraternity was always there even in the 80s or earlier.  But then even the legal provisions were not in their favor.  There was unacceptability in society.  

Homosexuality is a fact of life.  But there was a lot of social pressure.  In the 30s and 40s, contracts were signed in Hollywood with actors.  Rock Hudson or some other actor was forcibly married so it can be said that it is allegedly like ours, the term lavender marriage, came from Hollywood.  It is considered a facilitative marriage.  

Just to show that we are also heterosexual, not homosexual.  Earlier homosexuality was not legal, so like society, Bollywood too was afraid to make stories about them.  At that time it was a crime.  Society was orthodox.  Far from openly accepting it, they could not even discuss it, then people used to doubt anyone only in a suppressed tongue.  It was said that he is like that.
