According to Bhumi Pednekar, who supports same-sex unions in India, she is “an ally of the community.”

In India, the discussion around LGBTQIA+ rights and acceptance has been gaining momentum in recent years. As more and more public figures speak out in support of the community, the conversation around the topic has become more mainstream. One such public figure who has been vocal in her support of the community is Bollywood actress Bhumi Pednekar.

Pednekar, known for her roles in movies such as Dum Laga Ke Haisha and Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, has been an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community for some time now. In a recent interview, she spoke about her support for same-sex unions in India.

According to Pednekar, she is “an ally of the community” and believes that everyone should have the right to love and be loved, regardless of their gender or sexual orientation. She also spoke about the need for more awareness and education around LGBTQIA+ issues in India.

Pednekar’s support for same-sex unions is particularly noteworthy given that same-sex marriage is currently not legal in India. The country’s laws regarding homosexuality have been the subject of much debate and controversy, with many activists calling for a repeal of Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, which criminalized homosexuality until 2018.

Despite the legal challenges facing the LGBTQIA+ community in India, many public figures, including Pednekar, have been using their platforms to raise awareness and advocate for change. By speaking out in support of same-sex unions, Pednekar is helping to contribute to a more inclusive and accepting society in India.

In conclusion, Bhumi Pednekar’s support for same-sex unions in India is a positive step towards greater acceptance and understanding of the LGBTQIA+ community. As more public figures speak out in support of the community, it is hoped that the conversation around LGBTQIA+ rights in India will continue to gain momentum, leading to greater equality and acceptance for all.

Food blogger attacked by Swara Bhasker for boasting about being a vegetarian on Twitter: “Smug self-righteousness”

In response to food blogger Nalini Unagar’s “proud to be a vegetarian” tweet, actor Swara Bhasker attacked Unagar. On Sunday, Nalini posted a photo of her lunch at X. It included a paneer dish and fried rice.

What was said by the food blogger?
Nalini shared the picture and added, “I’m happy to be a vegetarian. There are no more tears, cruelty, or guilt on my platter.”

This is Swara’s response.
In response, Swara penned, “To be honest… I find vegetarians’ arrogant self-righteousness to be incomprehensible. Denying the calf its mother’s milk, forcing cows to become pregnant, ripping them from their calves, and taking their milk are the main components of your diet.”

Furthermore, she said, “You eat root vegetables? That eliminates the entire plant! Just because it’s Bakr Eid, don’t stress about virtue signalling (folded hands emojis). June 16–17 is when Bakr Eid, or Eid al-Adha, is observed.

Swara just had her Eid celebration.
A few months after celebrating Eid al-Fitr, Swara posted a tweet. She celebrated the occasion with her daughter Raabiyaa and spouse Fahad Ahmad. On her Instagram Stories, Swara posted snippets of her Eid festivities. Swara and Raabiyaa were shown in one of the stories pointing at the Eid ka Chaand. Another photo shows Swara, her daughter, and Fahad posing as a family. Fahad is Muslim, but Swara is Hindu.

When Swara discussed the cultures of her and Fahad
Swara performed a chhathi puja for Raabiyaa the previous year. She revealed tidbits from the festivities and reported discovering shared cultural experiences with Fahad’s family. “The child is a mish mash of the mish mash we are,” Swara had wrote. She therefore has 62.5% UP, 12.5% Bihar, and 25% Andhra. Furthermore, I support representation and am always up for a celebration! Furthermore, since our wedding, we’ve learned that Muslims and Hindus in North India have common cultural customs, which strengthens my conviction that, despite our variety, love and joy will always find a language.”

“Chhathhi, or the sixth day of a child’s birth, is celebrated throughout UP Bihar. Mom and kid dress in the colour of turmeric or haldi, and aunts or bua put kaajal on the child and parents to protect them from ‘nazar,’ or the evil eye! I’m performing a well-known “sohar”—celebration songs for new babies. Although sohars are often used to celebrate newborn boys, I customised it for a newborn girl—oh! And although sisters and aunts sing the sohars, mothers don’t, so I thought, “Why not?” Dholak aa gaya hai! Thank you to @manisha2967 for the Chhathhi lesson and the beautiful singing I was able to do, and to Bhanu ji @partapsinghb11 for the dholak that helped make my singing pleasant.
