I was in tears after watching it. They are not transgenders by their choice. They are humans too and deserve equal rights and opportunities to grow. We must make a world where everyone feels safe despite their sexuality and gender. Accept them peeps!! They deserve lot of love to get accepted by themselves and society. ❤

Really This is the one of the best story. Ye society ki primitive thinking ki wjh se hota h. Bhutt se log Padh likhkar bhi na Jane kaise itni gandi soch rakhte jaise ki iss story ke through hi le li. And plz enjoy and Love the way in you are. Because it's your life. So enjoy your life without any kind of hesitation. And it's my kindly request ki agr aap aise logo ke liye Kuchh achha nhi kr skte to Koshish kro ki aap unke sath bura behave bhi mat kro. Ye jaise h apni life se Happy h. To aap Unko apni primitive thinking K wajah se preshan mt kro.... *LIVE AND LET LIVE*

Tears to my eyes... They should be treated equally

[@shirinbhattacharya1710]

It is a great movie. I being a sociology student feel that short films like this, should be shown in various platforms in order to raise awareness and stop the discrimination. But there is a small but grave mistake in the subtitles, at last when the elderly intersex is recalling their encounter with their parents as compared to Appu's parents, the subtitles say for " Ye toh hijra hai." is " He is a transgender." This is not right. Because transgender is someone whose gender identity is not similar to his/her biological sex. For example, when a boy feels that he is a girl within or when a girl feels she is a boy within. Anyway, it is really, really a great film. All the intersexes, all over the world deserve parents like Appu's.

They are created like dat only but whatever it is they too are humans they too have got feelings ... They should not be isolated from a family just for being the way they are created..they too deserve to be treated equally.. Other than that the bonding of friendship shown between kids who are not affected by this thing is really commendable... They are innocent with pure heart... ❤
