About time India legalized gay marriage in general or homosexuality, it's 2018, not 1900. So many men are pressured into marriage and have to hide their true identity due to societal pressure and same for women. It's dreadful what these people go through.Sexuality is a human right, not a sin. The religious fanatics who cite "religion" as the main reason for it being sodomy etc.makes me so infuriated. Also, I can go on a page about the way transgender community have been shoved aside in our community etc. not just here but in West too, will stop there atm.😒

Also using gay slurs should be unacceptable


I have heard in this forum people use terms like "f*ggot" when attacking someone, the same people who are self proclaimed gay rights activists


Not surprised though, that's what people like Chelsea Handler, Alex Baldwin etc. do, use terms like c**k s*#%ing f*ggot when attacking people they don't like 😕

Deepa Mehta's film Fire too was based on it which released 2 decades ago...



Yes true... So somebody should make a movie about Khilji and his slave


Btw There was uproar when the movie was released, Hindu groups esp pointed to the fact that the lesbian SILS were named Sita and Radha... (Later they changed Sita to Nita, I think)

Another movie was released around the same time with male gay characters, not much protest for that
(Forgot the name, Hyderabad Blues?)

That film created stir all across the nation due to the controversy...Surprisingly the censor board passed this movie without any cuts which was accepted by the govt too...Considering it was 90's,her other film Earth had a tough time with the CB which finally released with few cuts...In early 90's Shekhar Kapoor struggled for years to get his movie Bandit Queen to pass through the CB...This was a major surprise...Some statements were issued by the industry that the traditionally reserved censor board had finally come off age 😆...

Shiv Sena had protested in Mumbai...they had told the theatre owners to refund tickets ...The theatres screening this film were attacked...there was major protest in Delhi and in some states...Political parties and religious groups had attacked the theatres...It was due to the theme...and it was also due to the names of the chars...Some statements were given out by the CM's of the states that the film's theme was alien to our culture...It was sent back to the CB...Petitions were filed to the SC by well known film personalities,they even led protests..These film personalities then had to face the ire of those groups for supporting the film...After few months it was re-released and again the posters,theatres were vandalized by few members of BJP...After few months again it was re-released..This film might b the only film that has re-released many times 😆 .


Hyderabad Blues was mistaken as a blue film due to it's title 😆...The Censor told Nagesh Kukunoor to change the title 😆...Poor man had to explain the censors by keeping blues in the title what he actually meant 😆...Even after doing so they were more adamant to change the title as he can't project a city as depressed city 😆...
