Description

"Urvashi Rautela won Ms. Universe India in 2016, which is the same year I won Mr. Gay India. She's at Cannes, and I'm here!" Anwesh Sahoo may laugh about it in this episode of AfterHours with All About Eve. But the fact remains that a queer person in India still struggles to get the same opportunities as a cis-het person. What do queer folx really want? Are Pride parades enough? Are we failing them in the debate around same-sex marriage in India? AfterHours with All About Eve dives into all this and more with one of the most prominent voices on LGBTQIA+ rights in India. And he's an absolute firecracker! Hear Anwesh speaking to Bani G. Anand about Pride, homophobia, same-sex marriage, bullying, and the barriers that stand in the way of embracing your true self.
