Transgenders are often objects of ridicule in films. 'Narthagi' attempts to change that

Tamil cinema has long degraded transgenders, often depicting them as prostitutes and hecklers. "This should change. Such movies give the audience a wrong notion about us," says Kalki Subramanian, a transgender rights activist.

As the first step to educate the public using the visual media, a dedicated team of technicians has come forward to make a movie about the life of a transgender. Kalki has played the lead role.
