Laxmi Narayan Tripathi, the eunuch who made news when a documentary on her life was screened at the Mumbai Festival and television channels, will be seen as a contestant on Salman's TV show "Dus Ka Dum".

During the recording of the show, Laxmi's quick wit, humour and nakhras had everyone rolling in laughter. Laxmi dispelled some age-old myths about the transgender community.

Laxmi is a post-graduate and works for social causes in her community. She is one of the 11 people and the first transgender person to be selected to represent the community at the UN to work for human rights.
