 June is celebrated as LGBTQ plus pride month and in this video we are going to be having a look at some of the movies and series which have been made on the subject in India. Now if you go back around 3 decades, there was Fire in 1996 which was directed by Deepa Mehta starring Shabana Azmi and Nandita Das. About a lesbian couple it caused a huge fear that time posters of the film were burnt, screenings were disrupted but definitely one of the first major films to be made on this subject. Then of course there was My Brother Nikhil in 2005. In recent years there have been a lot of movies whether it is Margarita with the straw, Aligarh, Shubh, Mangal, Jyada, Saabdan. But if we go back in the last one year the two series which have really made a difference on addressing this subject is The Fame Game and Guilty Minds. In one of them there is a star's son who is gay and in the other one it is about a lesbian couple and the intelligence, the awareness, the sensitivity and the subtlety with which these issues have been handled is what makes a difference.
