New Delhi, 13th January 2022: We have often seen men and women playing main transgender characters, whether it was a movie like ‘Shabnam mausi’, ‘Tamanna’ and recently Vaani Kapoor was seen playing a transgender in ‘Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui, But we haven’t seen transgender playing the character of a cisgender woman ever. It’s time to create history.
Bollywood director and actor Vipin k Sethie is all set to launch a transgender supermodel in his next project, ” REVENGE”, starring Naaz Joshi, India’s first international trans beauty queen, as his main lead. First time ever in India we shall witness this change in Bollywood. Transsexual women will be no longer subject to laughter and the movie shall set an example that trans women have the capacity to carry the movie alone on their shoulders, He spotted Naaz Joshi is one of the leading newspapers in the country, and decided to cast her for the film. She will now undergo acting workshops, dance classes, and martial art training. She says that she is taking this challenge not just for herself but also for her trans sisters.

The change has begun with Mr. Sethie’s efforts. Mr. Sethie has released a Bollywood movie “Atithi Kab Aoge Shhamshan” running successfully on the OTT Platform and his second project ‘Final Justice’ is ready for release And now we can expect movies from Delhi to bring in a revolution in the Hindi film industry.
The pain behind a trans woman to look like a cisgender woman can be well explained only by a trans woman. The film is bold and a suspense horror. Naaz Joshi says her character in the movie is Sameera a cis woman who is newly married to the love of her life, rest of what happens is you shall see in the film. With this film, the makers wish to give a message to other directors who take cis people to do the trans roles that if given trans women the right grooming and workshop they can even leave cis actors behind.

The problem is makers don’t cast trans woman is that scenes like lovemaking can discomfort their male counterparts. It’s time to turn the table around and accept this first-ever change in Bollywood. Apart from this Naaz is also working on her home production Draupadi, which is going to be a black and white series of transsexual prostitutes, 15 mins movie is going to be realistic with real LGBT community actors, Naaz is working on her debut music video, kate nahi karate, a song she produced in 2018. But couldn’t complete as she never got the main lead, all the male models refused to do intimate scenes on screen with her, finally, she will be doing this video alone, the main lead actor will be a shadow. And she will be romancing a shadow. This is her tribute to late actor Sreedevi. She has been a big fan of all her life. When people refuse you, you need to produce, naaz believes in this and is ready to make people believe in her talent once again.
