Shakespeare wrote that 'the world is a matter of our point of view, nothing more, nothing less' and in the case of 25-year-old Sharan it is 'both illusion and the fullness of the divine'.

If you've read the "Memoirs of a Geisha", you'll relate to Sharan on a soulful note.

Sharan is a transgender.

She lives on her own terms and doesn't think of herself as brave. She is content having surrendered herself to devotion, as described in the "Bhagavad Gita".

Meeting her for the first time in her apartment, Sharan cuts a willowy figure in her moss-green saree, matching bangles and tinkling anklets.
