Ajeeb Dastan Hain Yeh in Bombay Talkies was a very well made short. Kapoor and Sons (even though he didn't direct) was one of the best mainstream portrayals of a gay man.

But then again, this is the same man who made Dostana and justifies obsessive love in ADHM.

Who knows what lurks in the mind of KJo.

If he can pull an Ajeet Dastaan Hai Yeh & not a Dostana, then I am all for it.

LOL. None of the BW so called heroes will be ready to play one. K&S was the best example.

I don't think a homosexual film will be accepted widely by the people in India who are still really conservative in terms of traditional thinking.

BT one was a short film and well.. BT never really had the mainstream commercial reach. K&S wasn't about the love story of Fawad or him coming out to his family (though it was very significant to the plot.) I don't even have to get into Dostana.

ELTDTAL is probably the first of its kind from Bollywood. Call me cynical, but I think this has more to do with him latching on to some "trend" that is a recent success and try and beat that commercially. First that rumour of horror comedy after stree, next rumour of a patriotic film after Uri . Now this. Though, I am pretty sure he will wait to see how Ek Ladki ...does.

Anyways , regardless of motivations - I am kinda hoping it is true - providing he gets a good writer . He is having a golden run as a producer so it would be good for the film

Normally I would applaud this, but I don't trust Kjo at all. There are better film-makers. Hell, even Ayaan Mukherjee could do it. Shakun Batra.

all the more reason for one. Art influences culture. It's high time LGBT relations got normalized in India.

You know, that awful Sonu ki titu film missed a great opportunity to be a gay love story
