From Akshay Kumar To Farah Khan, B-Town Celebs Are In Awe Of ¡®Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga¡¯
After scrapping Indian Penal Code's Section 377 and decriminalising same-sex love, Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, a mainstream movie with a lesbian love story, comes as a breath of fresh air. It¡¯s a daring film, which is breaking stereotypes in many ways.
Did you know the movie has been written by a trans-woman?
Ghazal Dhaliwal has been writing dialogues and screenplays for many films including Lipstick Under My Burkha, Wazir and Qarib Qarib Single, but Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga is a historic win for her.
