Dunno Y - Bollywood's first gay kiss - BBC report by Howard Johnson

Dunno Y, a film that's being touted as Bollywood's answer to Brokeback Mountain, is being released in Indian cinemas today. It's the first movie in the country to feature a male homosexual kiss. Its release comes a year after activists successfully repealed the criminalisation of gay sex in India. But the film is being criticised by religious groups who say its subject matter is "not natural". Howard Johnson reports from Mumbai.

@SerenaBlackCat AM SORRY SIR BUT BEING HOMOSEXUAL IS ALSO A GENETIC SEXUAL BEHAVE, ITS NOT A DISEASE WHICH SPREAD FROM WEST.... AM A STUDENT OF BIOLOGY AND KNOW QUIT LOT ABOUT IT....

So if you can't understand someone else's view you should be shot dead? That's what's wrong in the world now... No one's understanding any one else and they are using guns to solve it. Preach tolerance, but practice it, too. I am a gay-supporter/ally/enthusiast, so I understand being angry at intolerant folks... but don't fight back violently and with more hate/intolerance.

All I can say is LET US FACE REALITY. Straight people exist so I do not see issue why homosexuals should be denied or be condemned. WAKE UP IT'S 2012 already!!!

People do accept genetic disorders like all kind of disiseases but they do not accept homosexuality. It is the same thing! OK, there is a fact, that gay people DO like to make parades and show themself, and lot's of people do not agree with that, but the fact of being homo is fine with me. Just leave me out of the game :P

PS: i even uploaded a fine bollyawood gay movie to encourage the movement

@Chamath5 What is happening is ppl like yourself are showing hatred 2wards others n hence spreading violence. sad but true indeed.

Actually its homophobia, not homosexuality, that was imported from the West. India was initially very 'liberal' in terms of sexuality and homophobia and anti-gay penal codes were imposed by the British (and maybe Muslims prior to that). That preacher didnt mention Buddhists or Jains. Wonder why? The guy at 2:54 represents everything that wrong with India.

WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR SISTER COUNTRY SO SAD :(

[akankshagupta95]

I have not an ounce of problem with homosexuality. It's just people's thinking... Slowly and steadily, hopefully, people will accept homosexuality as a part of society. And to those people who think homosexuality is atrocious, if they don't remember, Kama Sutra originated in India. Yeah, its high time they stop being so heedless about these things.
