linkIf the movies were to be believed, it may seem that yes, homosexuality is acceptable and is here to stay. With the recent release of 'I Can't Think Straight' yet another out-of-the-closet film strives to bring forth the message that while homosexuality may not yet be a universally accepted behaviour, it is a reality.
It is this reality that Indian cinema tried to portray in films such as Deepa Mehta's Fire , Rahul Rawail's Mast Kalandar , Buddhadev Dasgupta's Mondo Meyer Upakhyan , and K R Reddy's Veeru Dada , to name a few. More recently, films such as My Brother Nikhil , Mango Souffle , Pyar ka Superhit Formula , and Kal Ho Na Ho (remember the camaraderie between Saif Ali Khan and Sharukh Khan that has explicit undertones of homosexuality - all in jest though) have also taken shots at homosexuality.
