Chennai: Aiswarya was born a male but longed to live like a woman. So at the age of 17, she left her home in Tamil Nadu's Erode district to go to Mumbai. Ten years on, Aiswarya is known as Karpaga and is all set to make her acting debut as the heroine of debutante director D Siva Kumar's film 'Paal,' which literally means gender in Tamil.

The story is about how a family treats a transgender, her love towards a man and how the society treats them.

It is the story of the film and the fact that it deals with the unusual story of a transgender had created some hurdles for its director.
