Gay Bollywood Dream Sequence
Like many folks in and out of India, I grew up watching Indian cinema both of the regional and Bollywood variety. And whenever a choreographed dance/dream sequence burst out on screen – Oh yeah!

Bhook
Amusing, no doubt. But a harsh reality of the times we live in. Now if only love could be a little more appealing.
Being Gay
Perhaps, ‘I got new shoes’ would have garnered more shrieks than my coming out did. Its been a couple of years now and I have realized how perceptions and opinions change once you tell people you swing the other way.

The Gays Are Here
And it’s time to cash in. The most evident and (thankfully) positive effect coming from Decimalization of IPC 377 is Business honchos using the Gay angle to promote their products and services.

Zilch is my faith in the Indian Main Stream Media. Be it their Breaking News claims, Current Affairs, Political Opinions, Reviews; anything and everything that is highlighted by them I refuse to buy it. In today’s competitive scenario, by default…

Indian Prince Searching For True Love
The name Prince Manvendra Singh Gohil stands synonymous with the term Homosexuality. And it wouldn’t be wrong to tag him as the ‘face of desi-Queer world’. After all Gohil is the only known openly gay Indian royalty (he…
